Dante Moore OUT for Oregon as Ducks Seek to Keep Playoff Hopes Alive at Illinois--Keys to Victory!

Locked on Podcast Network — Fri, 23 Oct 2026 10:00:00 GMT

Oregon will once again be without QB Dante Moore against Illinois, who has struggled on defense this year. The path to offensive success is, frankly, very simple.

On today's episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin discusses this week's matchup and gives his bold take for the week. Dante Mooree hasn't been seen since the dirty hit from USC's Desmand Stephens II. Has he played his last snap as a Duck?

The first Big 10 coach firing has happened with Mike Locksley being out at Maryland. There are players on that roster that the Ducks should be going after.

BIG 10 SQUAD: Is the Big 10 BACK!? Where Oregon stands

Locked on Podcast Network — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 21:00:00 GMT

UCLA’s playoff surge stuns the Big Ten as Julian Sayin’s injury shakes up the race—could the Bruins overshadow Ohio State and Iowa for a spot in the College Football Playoff?

Spencer McLaughlin leads a spirited debate on UCLA’s impressive resilience, Iowa’s smooth path after navigating Minnesota and Nebraska, and Michigan’s quarterback change with Tommy Carr replacing Bryce Underwood. The crew scrutinizes Penn State’s and Washington’s setbacks, dissecting coaching expectations and roster depth. Key storylines include Josh Hoover’s health ahead of Michigan’s showdown with Indiana, analytics giving an edge to Iowa, and the revolving door of Big Ten starting quarterbacks—27 so far. Hot takes fly on USC’s inconsistency, Wisconsin’s Camp Randall advantage, and whether strength of schedule could make or break UCLA and Iowa’s postseason chances.

Who will emerge as the true Big Ten contender in this unpredictable season?

Previewing and Predicting Oregon vs. Illinois in Champaign

Max Torres — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 18:19:00 GMT

ScoopDuckOn3's Max Torres and Justin Hopkins sit down to preview Oregon Football's Week 8 game on the road against the Illinois Fighting Illini.

The Ducks are coming off of two straight weeks of low-scoring contest after narrowly escaping Nebraska at home in a 17-14 win.

Dan Lanning sat Dylan Raiola for three quarters but he was ready for his moment when the Ducks finally called his number and he willed them to a win against his former team. Oregon's offense will be without Dante Moore and wide receiver Evan Stewart once again, as anticipation builds around whether or not Moore will return to the field for the Ducks in 2026.

Oregon's defense has been playing lights out lately and they'll face a true freshman making his first college start in Illinois' Michael Clayton II. Every game means something and just like last week, the Ducks can't afford to take a third loss, as it would mean the end of their college football playoff hopes this season.

Preview and Picking Oregon's MUST WIN game at Illinois | Autzen Audibles Podcast

Oregon at Illinois Preview (Oct 22, 2026)

Oregon Ducks, Big Ten, and College Football — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 16:20:00 GMT

Breaking Down Oregon vs. Illinois: Game Preview Insights

> Exploring key matchups and strategies for the upcoming game.

Good afternoon, Duck fans. As we gear up for the Oregon vs. Illinois matchup, let’s dive into what we can expect from both teams this week.

Weather Report

As October unfolds, we’re enjoying some surprisingly pleasant weather in the WM Valley. Doug mentioned that this weekend's forecast looks perfect for football—mild temperatures and no rain should create an ideal atmosphere for the game.

Illinois: A Mixed Bag

Illinois enters this game with a mediocre record of 3-3 and a F+ rating that places them 49th overall. Their offensive stats are decent, ranking 21st, but their defense lags significantly at 91st. The absence of their starting quarterback, Caden Hauser, who suffered an injury, puts them in a tough spot. QB11 highlighted the challenge of starting a true freshman, Michael Clayton, in his first collegiate start, adding uncertainty to their offensive strategy.

> "They are without their starting quarterback, who has been really good throughout the year." — QB11

Oregon’s Offense: Finding Its Footing

Oregon's offense has had its struggles, particularly in recent weeks, but Doug pointed out that this matchup against Illinois could be just the remedy they need. Given Illinois's vulnerabilities, especially on defense, it’s a prime opportunity for Oregon to spark its offensive rhythm.

Doug noted, "This is a game where if you're Oregon's offense who struggled the last two weeks to move the ball and score points, like maybe Illinois' defense is exactly what the doctor ordered."

Key Strategies for Success

For Oregon to secure a win, it will be crucial for the team to establish a strong run game early on. QB11 emphasized the importance of running behind their offensive line, asserting that getting back to basics could open up their passing game significantly.

> "If Oregon can run for like 180 yards in this game, that will set them up for success." — QB11

Maintaining consistent offensive pressure without turning the ball over will be essential. The Ducks need to ensure they are not predictable, especially with the potential for challenging third-down situations.

Conclusion: What to Watch For

As we look ahead, keep an eye on how well Oregon can adapt to their opponent’s weaknesses and how Illinois handles the pressure of starting a new quarterback. The atmosphere in Champaign is bound to be electric, and with the stakes high, both teams will be looking to make a statement.

This game could be an exciting turning point for both programs. Let’s see if Oregon can build confidence and momentum as they head into the heart of their season!

Oregon Heads to Champaign for Clash With Illinois | Drew Pastorek Joins

Max Torres — Thu, 22 Oct 2026 01:18:00 GMT

ScoopDuckOn3 Oregon Football and Recruiting Reporter Max Torres is joined by Drew Pastorek of the Oskee Talk Podcast and Champaign Room on SB Nation.

Max and Drew discuss this weekend's Big Ten matchup between the Oregon Ducks and the Illinois Fighting Illini.

The Ducks and Illini last met in 2024, a game Oregon won 38-9 in Eugene. Oregon leads the all-time series 3-1 and continues to look for answers on offense after struggling to move the ball in consecutive games against UCLA and Nebraska.

Fortunately for the Ducks, their defense has been playing lights out and trending up heading into this week's road trip. Matayo Uiagalelei, Teiutum Tuioti and Nasir Wyatt have all been dominant on the EDGE for the Ducks. A'Mauri Washington and Bear Alexander have been thriving as well.

Max and Drew get into some of the top storylines and players to watch heading into Saturday's game and give viewers a great look at both Oregon and Illinois.

REACTION: Oregon Defeats Nebraska 17-14 to Secure CRUCIAL Win

Max Torres — Mon, 19 Oct 2026 20:45:00 GMT

Oregon entered Week 7 in a do or die game as the Ducks couldn't afford to take a third loss. ScoopDuck's Max Torres and Justin Hopkins break down Oregon's 17-14 win over the Nebraska Cornhuskers and react to the news of wide receiver Evan Stewart's arrest on a DUII (Driving Under the Influence of Intoxicants) Sunday morning.

The Ducks' offense struggle for three quarters after Brock Thomas got the start and quarterback. But things finally started to turn around when Dan Lanning make the call to bring in Dylan Raiola, who led the Ducks on two scoring and drives and eventually threw the game-winning touchdown pass to Jamari Johnson.

Oregon's defense continues to play lights out and round in to form as the front seven turned in another strong performance, limiting Nebraska to 78 yards rushing and logging three sacks.

The Ducks now head to Illinois for a Week 8 matchup. Will Dante Moore finally be ready to return? We'll find out later this week.

Ducks Defense Shines in Narrow Win Against Nebraska

> A deep dive into Oregon's comeback victory and defensive prowess.

Good evening, Duck fans. In this week’s edition of the QB Eleven Show, Doug Scott and QB Eleven dissect the Oregon Ducks' thrilling 17-14 victory over Nebraska. This game wasn’t just about the final score but showcased the Ducks' defense stepping up when it mattered most.

A Defensive Turnaround

After a shaky start to the season, the Ducks' defense has found its rhythm. Doug highlights, "we're seeing now here these last two weeks, the defense that we expected to see this season." The defensive line, particularly players like Amari and Koy Perrot, have ramped up their performances, proving crucial in limiting Nebraska's offensive plays.

> "This is the best Oregon defense, I think, that we've ever seen. They are exceptional up and down," QB Eleven asserts, reflecting on how deep the rotation has become.

The revitalized defensive strategy has allowed players to showcase their talents, and it's evident in their improved play. Doug notes the standout contributions from the entire line, emphasizing that everyone is playing hard, and that’s making a difference.

Disruptive Forces

Throughout the game, the Ducks’ defense was a constant threat, with multiple tackles for loss and deflections at the line of scrimmage. QB Eleven points out the discipline displayed by the defense, especially against play action and misdirection plays, which Nebraska struggled to execute effectively.

> "It was a very difficult game for Nebraska to get on schedule and stay on schedule," QB Eleven comments, underscoring the havoc the Ducks’ defense wreaked.

Doug also highlights the remarkable discipline in the defensive ranks, stating, "on 95, 96% of snaps, everyone is in the right position." This improvement is pivotal in allowing the team to minimize explosive plays that plagued them early in the season.

Coaching Matters

Both Doug and QB Eleven praise the coaching changes that have positively influenced the team's performance. Chris Hampton's defensive strategies have particularly stood out. Doug mentions the need to differentiate the coaching hires, stating, "you can't lump them together and Hampton doesn't deserve to be taking all these strays."

The duo also notes the effective use of players in various roles, like Nasir Wyatt, who excelled as a spy against mobile quarterbacks. Doug observes, "his sideline to sideline speed made a difference in stretching some of those runs out."

Offense Needs Work

As impressive as the defense was, the offense continues to face challenges. Doug points out the limitations of the current quarterback situation, indicating that the Ducks need to prioritize finding a capable leader under center to capitalize on the defensive success.

In conclusion, while the Ducks' victory over Nebraska showcased a resilient defense, questions remain about the offensive unit’s ability to perform under pressure. This week’s game was a testament to the importance of a strong defensive line as the Ducks look to build momentum moving forward.

Reflecting on the game, it’s clear that while there are hurdles to overcome, the defense’s performance provides a solid foundation for future success. For a more comprehensive analysis and every play breakdown, tune into the full episode of the QB Eleven Show.
