Oregon Ducks coaching changes and performance issues
Overview
Following a 21-10 loss to Illinois, which marked Oregon’s first road loss in Big Ten play since 2024, head coach Dan Lanning fired offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer. Lanning stated the decision was made to find a new direction for the offense after the team failed to score in the second half of the game.
The program is currently navigating several challenges, including the absence of star quarterback Dante Moore due to a concussion. Coach Lanning has indicated that Moore is unlikely to return this season. Dylan Raiola is expected to start the upcoming game against No. 20 Northwestern at Autzen Stadium. Raiola, who remains winless as a starter, completed 27 of 41 passes for 246 yards without a touchdown in the previous game against Illinois.
In a recent matchup at Autzen Stadium, the Oregon Ducks secured a 34-26 comeback victory against No. 20 Northwestern. Despite trailing 20-6 early, Oregon utilized a fourth-quarter surge to win, improving their season record to 5-3. Dylan Raiola, making his fifth appearance as an injury replacement for Moore, contributed key touchdown passes to Dakorien Moore and Jamari Johnson. The Ducks also added a 75-yard touchdown run by Moore to extend their lead.
Assistant quarterbacks coach Jay Johnson, who took over play-calling duties following the departure of Mehringer, oversaw the offense during the win. The team continues to face concerns regarding recruiting and the transfer portal as it attempts to rebuild following the disappointing 2026 season.
