Oregon, Dante Moore Target Rebound at Rutgers After Indiana Setback

Accountability sessions on pass protections frame a reset for Oregon's passing game.

Overview

  • Dante Moore is coming off his poorest outing of the season in a 30-20 loss to Indiana with two interceptions, six sacks and his lowest quarterback rating.
  • No. 8 Oregon (5-1, 2-1 Big Ten) visits Rutgers (3-3, 0-3) on Saturday in the first meeting between the schools.
  • Coach Dan Lanning said Moore recognized missed opportunities and acknowledged the staff did not put him in the most advantageous positions.
  • Center Iapani Laloulu took ownership of the sacks and met with Moore and the running backs to review pass protections this week.
  • Rutgers ranks near the bottom nationally in pass defense, and Oregon will try to extend the nation’s longest road-winning streak as the Scarlet Knights chase bowl footing and a first win over a ranked team in 16 years.
