Oregon Ducks Practice Reports Updates, Etc. “2025” (6)
Why Hasn’t Oregon Ducks Coach Dan Lanning Named Starting Quarterback Yet?Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning has not officially named a starting quarterback, however Dante Moore has all the tools and support of his teammates. What is Lanning looking for in the quarterback competition and does he have a timeline of when he will announce? Oregon's leading tackler, linebacker Bryce Boettcher and Moore have developed a strong friendship this offseason through country music and golf. The two are stepping into leadership roles as the Ducks look to defend their Big Ten title. "He's very authentic to himself and he has a lot of confidence, but he's not arrogant either," Boettcher told Amaranthus. "He's humble as well. And the way he puts touch on his ball when he throws it is amazing. I'm excited for him." Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq can't help but smile when he talks about Moore. "Raw talent. Being honest with you, he can make just about any throw there is, and he's capable of just about anything," Sadiq told Amaranthus. "On top of that, he's just a great human, and he has a great ability to connect with the guys."

College Football Playoff Controversy: Time for Big Ten Commissioner to Explain his Radical Proposal
What's the answer to college football's playoff problem? Big Ten commish points at 'play-in games' for his rationale LAS VEGAS — A month ago, as he tuned into a College Football Playoff meeting through Zoom, Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti felt a wave of sudden enlightenment wash over him. As he watched CFP staff members share potential changes to the criteria and data used by the selection committee, as he witnessed mathematicians deliver ideas on adjustments, Petitti pulled away from the Zoom and had a thought. What the heck are we doing? “I found myself sitting there thinking that play-in games seem so rational as we look at folks talk about points and subtracting numbers and adding numbers. I’m thinking, ‘This is the rational system and the one where we play games is radical?’ “I admire the work they’re putting into it and all the stuff they’re talking about and adding and subtracting and listening to mathematicians and scheduling experts. But all of that is more valuable than two teams playing on the field? OK.” In an interview on Monday with Yahoo Sports from the site of this week’s Big Ten football media days, Petitti emphasized that his league’s position on a future playoff format remains unchanged — a position, he says, that is unlikely to change until the power conferences agree to play the same amount of conference games (nine) and until the selection process is rectified. Tony Petitti remains supportive of a playoff format that'd give 4 automatic bids to the Big Ten and SEC

The SEC Confronts a New Challenge: INSECURITY
Colin Cowherd lays out case for Big Ten over SEC as best conference in college football Two consecutive national championships from the Big Ten have shaken up the conference power in college football. After a dominant stretch from the SEC, Michigan and Ohio State finally broke through after long title droughts. Now, people out there, such as FOX’s Colin Cowherd, believe all the momentum is shifting away from the SEC and to the Big Ten. “Something’s changing and what’s changing is money,” Cowherd said. “Big Ten schools are bigger. They have more graduates. It’s easier to raise money for NIL. You add in Phil Knight and the Nike money, add in USC and the LA economy money, the Big Ten cities, LA, New York, Rutgers, Chicago, Northwestern, Minneapolis, DC, Seattle. “Big Ten money is Hollywood, tech, and financial centers. A lot of car dealerships in the SEC and car dealerships are running on razor-thin margins. So right now, the top spenders in college football, according to the On3 poll, four of the top seven are Big Ten and that’s not changing.” Money is one thing but on-field results is where the conversation began and will ultimately be decided. Some College Football Playoff wins, mainly by Ohio State this year, highlights recent head-to-head victories. And ational championship are the major gauge. However, some early preseason matchup will provide quality Big Ten vs. SEC matchups. Two sets of rivals square off in the first two weeks of the season. First, the Texas Longhorns head up to Columbus to face Ohio State. Then, the Buckeyes’ arch-rival, Michigan, will make a trip to Norman to play the other half of the Red River Shootout, the Oklahoma Sooners. Maybe in a year’s time, opinion on where the power dynamic changes. For now, Cowherd believes a ton of momentum is behind the Big Ten with an opportunity to only grow moving forward.

Checking in with the Oregon Ducks OL room ahead of the 2025 season Overall Oregon Ducks Offensive Line Check-In The standard has been set astronomically high for the offensive line in Eugene, thanks to back-to-back Joe Moore Award finalists under OL coach A'Lique Terry. Getting back to that level of play will be a tall task this year, as the Ducks have just one returning starter among the front five — center Iapani Laloulu. Around him, Oregon will use a mix of transfers and home-grown talent to fill out the starting five, and likely utilize the first couple of games of the year to figure out the best combination of players to do so. There is a ton of talent at the position with the likes of Isaiah World and Emmanuel Pregnon anchoring the left side, but how cohesive everything will be together is yet to be seen.
