My concern with Dante is that he has not been very composed when the pocket is collapsing around him. Will this injury exacerbate his lack of poise? It certainly won’t help it and he will likely continue to take the safe outlet pass. I’m quite sure he’s done running upfield. On the other hand, Raiola did well to sling the ball with pressure in his face. On Dakorian Moore’s TD the LT got driven into his lap and he still got the ball off. I have to think Dante bails on that play and throw to a different receiver.

He absolutely eviscerated USC. Not just the team...the entire organization! Petros went OFF!! He was also VERY complimentary of Lanning!

I saw Stephen A's comments on his program. He wasn't pulling any punches, that is for sure.

We haven't seen Raiola vs a defense that actually game planned for him. I liked what he showed, but he still has a lot to prove after just one game. The flip side: we probably haven't seen what happens when he practices with the starters. This will be interesting and I'm looking forward to the next game.

Very well done, Oregon! Respect the Game video with Chris Brown’s “Loyal” on the piano keys is ice cold. 🥶

Dante is a class act and I hope that he does what is best for him.

What did he say? I can’t stand to listen to that guy or Canzo.

In college, you don’t even need to touch a player when his knee is down, he’s down. Not sure about the NFL.

Nice right plant foot for the drive into Dante... absolutely obvious from this angle.

All we had to see was the celebration afterwards to know it was intentional.

Glad OBD has a relatively early bye week. Good incremental improvement the last couple weeks answer having the extra time for uninterrupted practice is going to be so valuable going forward. UCLA should be an unexpectedly competitive game.

AAAaaannnddd. Pictures tend to say a thousand words! ⬆️

Only 4 games in. That NINTH conference SEC game will help settle a lot, especially when counting "losses"! Just Win Baby! Then look up the first week of December and see where you are. GO DUCKS!

Oregon Ducks quarterback Dante Moore took to Instagram on Monday to deliver a message to the Oregon community and college football fans across the country about his injury.“To my team, the community, and to the World, thank you," Moore wrote on Instagram."These past two days have been very difficult, but through all of your prayers, I have made progress. There’s times I question myself and the Lord and say Why now? But I quickly remember Jeremiah 29:11: ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’ I can only worry about today and making sure I give today its full attention. I’ll be back soon. Go Ducks!"

We seem to be missing out on the Fox Big Noon Saturday spots. I figured this would be a perfect one with two ranked teams! We even got this exact matchup on Gameday a few years back (still drying off from that 5:30AM down pour!).

Someone changed Riley’s Wiki page. Under the section that says “Parents”, it now lists Dan Lanning. 🤣

When Captain Milquetoast is out on you...wow

I think it's more of an insult that Mississippi didn't drop out of the top 15. They have looked horrible on defense, and Chamblis is not going to bail them out. It's all for getting 5 or 6 into the playoffs. Right now, Mississippi looks worse than OBD does on defense. The SEC is literally Georgia and everyone else. Though Florida is going to give them problems this year. I like Mississippi State's Offense. Too bad their defense is worse than Ole Miss'. That game will be a basketball score for sure(lol). The SEC still has more athletic and agile players than everybody else. That is part of it. Coaches really do have to out coach that advantage. Few have.

Agreed. Not to mention everyone knows the QB is going to slide. It's absolutely just a matter of touching him down when he does. Should be a rule in fact. The guy was trying to injure him. He was headhunting. He lunged forward, and loaded his elbow for the kill shot. And despite hitting with his shoulders, the elbow motion was for more momentum. He would have hit him with his helmet if it were allowed. It was viscous, malicious, and highly intentional. Ever since that Pitt QB faked a slide, and they changed the rules so QBs couldn't do that, it has been obvious players are trying to hurt QBs that slide. All players have to do is breakdown and wait for the slide. Then walk up and tap him on the shoulder pads. It's not even debatable. The plays when RBs and WRs make an unconventional move is when you see hits like that. That is the only time you give a defender the benefit of the doubt. And those should be a five yard penalty and an automatic first down. People are making excuses for guys to intentionally injure QBs that will always slide in the open field.

Please correct me where I am wrong as I don't understand all the football rules but.... As far as I understand the nanosecond a QB starts to slide they are down. Looking at the stills Dante starts sliding while the defender is still somewhat upright. His "tackle" was aimed at the shin level of an upright runner so I think he would have done a more traditional tackle if he thought Moore was running. So by my understanding his shoulder missile was intentionally aimed at where he thought Moore's head/shoulder area was going to be. So I just don't get the excuse making even by so called experts victim blaming Moore for sliding late. I have watched it over and over and looked at stills and cannot grasp how that can be anything but an intentionally head seeeking hit on a runner that is by rule already down. Then USC allows that utterly half hearted "apologies" to come out. They both seemed fake and insincere. I would much rather no apology be issues than a scumbag in sheep's clothing apology come out. Heck, Chris Simmspleton issued a seemingly more sincere apology. I didn't hate USC at all before but they are now part of my Unholy Hate Trinity with OSewe and The Montlake Bundyies...welcome SoCal Orenthals. Insert every curse word here.
