Episode Details

Dante Moore is back for Oregon’s 2026 season, eyes locked on a national title, choosing to stay and lead the Ducks over the NFL. Already a Heisman contender and throwing for over 3,500 yards last year, he’s focused on minimizing turnovers in high-stakes games. With the Big Ten on a three-title streak — Michigan, Ohio State, and Indiana — Oregon must beat top rivals to keep the momentum alive. Their receiving corps is elite: Evan Stewart back from injury, Dakorien Moore, Jeremiah McClellan, and transfers Iverson Hooks and Gatlin Bair. Tight end Jamari Johnson steps into Kenyon Sadiq’s shoes with over 500 yards and 3 TDs, showing NFL-caliber upside. On defense, new coordinator Chris Hampton leans on stars Brandon Finney Jr. and Koi Perich to anchor a critical secondary — if they rise, Oregon could finally claim that championship.
