Dan Lanning defends Dante Moore amid scrutiny after Oregon loss

Oregon football coach Dan Lanning addressed criticism of quarterback Dante Moore on September 14, following a 39-31 loss to Oklahoma State on September 12. Lanning confirmed that Moore was receiving IV treatment for dehydration after the game, which led to his absence from postgame interviews. The Ducks' performance drew criticism for lack of discipline, with Lanning acknowledging the need for improvement on both offense and defense. He also regretted a failed fourth-down conversion attempt late in the game that led to Oklahoma State's victory. The Ducks are set to face Portland State on September 18 at Autzen Stadium.
