Oregon drops out of AP rankings after loss to UCLA and seven turnovers

Oregon fell 17-15 to UCLA in a home game on October 11, leading to the Ducks' drop from the AP Top 25 for the first time since 2019. The team struggled with seven turnovers, including two interceptions and five fumbles, while starting quarterback Dante Moore sat out due to a concussion. Dylan Raiola, replacing Moore, completed 6 of 19 passes for 43 yards before being replaced by Brock Thomas, who contributed a late touchdown. Following the game, Oregon coach Dan Lanning indicated that changes in offensive strategy might be considered ahead of next week's game against Nebraska.
