Oregon Ducks' QB Battle Heats Up: Moore Stays, Raiola Arrives
13 Mar
Summary
- Dante Moore returns, boosting CFP hopes for the Ducks' third straight season.
- Nebraska transfer Dylan Raiola joins the quarterback room as he recovers.
- Oregon begins spring practice with 14 returning Peach Bowl starters.

Oregon Ducks coach Dan Lanning began the 2026 spring season practices on March 12, 2026, with a clear focus on returning to the College Football Playoff. The team's aspirations received a major boost when starting quarterback Dante Moore decided to return for his redshirt junior year.
Moore, who led the Ducks to a 13-2 record in 2025, threw for 3,565 yards and 30 touchdowns. His decision was crucial, especially after the team added Nebraska transfer Dylan Raiola, a former top recruit. Raiola is currently working back from a fibula injury sustained on November 1, 2025.
