Oregon quarterback Dylan Raiola was benched in the second half of the No. 13 Ducks' 17-15 loss to No. 21 UCLA. Coach Dan Lanning stated the team failed to put Raiola in a position to succeed, noting the former Nebraska quarterback completed just 6-of-19 passes for 43 yards, threw two interceptions, and lost a fumble. He was replaced by third-string quarterback Brock Thomas, who threw for a touchdown in a late comeback attempt.
Lanning emphasized that the entire offense, including first-year offensive coordinator Drew Mehringer, is under evaluation. Meanwhile, starting quarterback Dante Moore, who suffered a concussion, returned to practice but his timeline for return remains unclear as the team proceeds with caution.
