July 17Jul 17 Author Administrator No. How Oregon football's average age in 2026 sets program up for successFor the first time since Marcus Mariota's last season as quarterback, the Oregon Ducks football team has a realistic chance of winning their first national championship in the program's history.Mariota won the Heisman Trophy that season and it wouldn't be to anyone's shock if current quarterback Dante Moore won the 2026 Heisman as well. But unlike Mariota, Moore is surrounded by some of the best talent around at nearly every spot on the field. Mariota's teammates were very good as well, but not like this.Another factor in the Ducks' favor for this upcoming season is the players' actual age. According to Rotowire.com, Oregon's roster has an average age of 20.18 years old. That would be about a junior, someone with plenty of experience on their side, but still has a lot to learn going forward.https://duckswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/college/ducks/football/2026/07/17/oregon-football-average-team-age-2026/90948881007/
