Dan Lanning gets testy with reporters over Dante Moore's missed press conference

Lanning said Moore received two IVs for dehydration and cramping after the upset loss and will meet reporters the next day.

  • On Saturday, September 12, the Oregon Ducks suffered a 39-31 upset loss to the Oklahoma State Cowboys at Boone Pickens Stadium. Head coach Dan Lanning blamed a "lack of leadership" for the defeat, which dropped Oregon to 21st in the Associated Press Top 25 Poll.
  • Quarterback Dante Moore completed fewer than 50 percent of his passes for 191 yards during the defeat. Lanning later clarified that Moore required IV treatment for dehydration after the game, explaining his absence from post-game media availability.
  • Junior offensive lineman Trent Ferguson is "probably" out for the season with a knee injury, Lanning announced. The Ducks also failed to convert any of their six fourth-down attempts during the loss.
  • Tensions flared during Monday's press conference when reporters questioned Moore's post-game absence. Defending his quarterback, Lanning asked, "Did you know he was getting two IVs after the game?" while criticizing the media for misconstruing the situation.
  • The Ducks host FCS Portland State at Autzen Stadium on Friday, September 18, aiming to rebound. Moore is expected to address the media today, Tuesday, September 15, to discuss the team's path forward after the loss.
