Summary
- Oregon QB Dante Moore is a top NFL prospect returning for his senior season.

- Matayo Uiagalelei leads Oregon's talented defensive front with 18.5 career sacks.
As Oklahoma State gears up to host the Oregon Ducks on September 12, the Cowboys are aware of the formidable talent they will face. Oregon's quarterback, Dante Moore, a projected first-round NFL talent, has opted to return for his senior season to pursue a national championship and further elevate his draft stock.
Fans should also keep an eye on tight end Jamari Johnson, who demonstrated significant growth in his reception numbers last season and is poised for an even more productive year. Defensively, Oregon boasts a strong front led by Matayo Uiagalelei. The experienced pass rusher has accumulated 18.5 career sacks and is a key component of the Ducks' formidable defense.
Other notable Ducks include cornerback Brandon Finney Jr., who earned freshman All-American honors and will anchor the secondary, and wide receiver Iverson Hooks, a transfer from UAB expected to bolster the Ducks' receiving corps, particularly in the short to intermediate passing game.
