Family Affair: Brothers Face Off on Football Field

The upcoming Week 1 game between the Oregon Ducks and the Boise State Broncos will feature a notable family confrontation. Brothers Teitum Tuioti of Oregon and Mana Tuioti of Boise State are set to compete against each other on the football field.

Their father, Tony Tuioti, serves as the defensive line coach for the Oregon Ducks, adding another layer to this familial gridiron clash. The Tuioti family has a deep connection to football, with four sons playing for different programs in the 2025 season.

Teitum Tuioti is entering his senior season with the Ducks and has developed into a key player. He achieved a career-best performance in 2025, recording 68 tackles and leading the team with 9.5 sacks. His development is seen as a major success story for the Oregon program under Coach Dan Lanning.
