WATCH: Coach Dan Lanning spoke with the media for a final time before Washington game Everything Dan Lanning said on Wednesday of Washington week - Transcript Everything Dan Lanning said on Wednesday of Washington week 247SPORTS.COM Below is a complete transcript of Oregon head coach Dan Lanning's press conference from Wednesday of Washington week.

Dan Lanning’s Ducks are following a familiar blueprint, but they’re building something completely different in Eugene. Whenever a coach leaves a job to take over a new program, there are bits and pieces that he borrows. Maybe a coordinator here or a support staffer there. Perhaps he borrows practice blueprints and various organizational strategies. But how to affect players and get the best out of them is something that can be far more difficult to grasp. You can recruit at the approximate level of the best teams in the sport, but can you get them to actually perform? It’s the great mystery of team sports, especially with a bunch of 18- to 22-year-olds. There’s a list a mile long of coaches hired off a coaching tree who aren’t able to replicate the success of their former bosses. You don’t have to think long to arrive at your favorite failed knockoff version of Nick Saban, who is himself a product of the Bill Belichick tree, which has produced similarly spoiled fruit. Whenever any coach is hired from a tree, fans focus on how close the on-field product develops in the Saban mold. But some of Saban’s most important work has been around the mental aspect of the game. The same can be said of Kirby Smart, and now Oregon coach Dan Lanning, who worked for both of them along the way to Eugene. In Athens, Lanning met Drew Brannon and Cory Shaffer of AMPLOS, a performance psychology firm that has worked with Clemson and Georgia, among various other corporate clients. The word is Latin for growth and development, and it’s the growth mindset preached that is a key foundation of how the Ducks have built success. This is an interesing article that helps you understand Lanning's coaching style. To access the details in the article, click here.

5 Washington Huskies Oregon needs to watch for on Saturday In all honesty, we could have gone with a dozen of players for this 5 opponents article featuring the Washington Huskies. But we had to keep it down with the obvious for the No. 6 team in the nation and a team that will present Oregon’s biggest challenge of the season. Unlike USC, the Huskies are very good on both sides of the ball. They also have a coaching staff that knows what it is doing, which is a far cry from the previous leadership under Jimmy Lake. Washington is a bonafide national championship contender and for the first time in the series history, both teams come into the game ranked in the Top 10 in both the AP and Coaches poll. Fortunately, Oregon has a team that is very capable of going on the road and defeating a club such as this. But the Ducks will have to pay a little extra attention to these five Dawgs in Oregon to avoid the first loss of the season... 5 Washington Huskies Oregon needs to watch for on Saturday DUCKSWIRE.USATODAY.COM 5 Washington Huskies Oregon needs to watch for on Saturday

The 10 stupidest decisions college football coaches have made in 2023 We’re all experts. There’s no way we would have handed off instead of taking a knee, or given up a game-winning TD with 10 men on the field, or given up a TD with 13 players on the field, or gone for it on 4th-and-32 with 3 timeouts left.

Both defenses will be tested as the top two offenses in the nation face off. Washington is the top-ranked offense in the nation, while Oregon has the #2 ranked offense.
