Oregon entered Saturday's matchup at Oklahoma State with championship expectations. The Ducks left Stillwater with one of the most shocking losses of the Dan Lanning era and a long list of questions about where this season goes from here.

On this postgame edition of Autzen Audibles, DuckTerritory.com's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil break down Oregon's stunning 39-31 loss to Oklahoma State and why the biggest concern coming out of the game isn't the talent on the roster — it's the coaching.

The Ducks were plagued by mistakes, penalties, poor execution and moments that made Oregon look like an unprepared football team. Matt and Erik discuss why those issues ultimately fall on Lanning and his coaching staff and why the pressure has increased dramatically on Oregon's coordinators after another disappointing performance.

The guys also discuss whether this is simply a bad start to the season or evidence that Oregon could be looking at a three- or four-loss year if things aren't corrected quickly.

Also included in the show are the latest injury updates from Lanning, his opening statement following the loss and reaction to what Oregon's head coach said about his team's performance.

Later in the podcast, Erik reports from Stillwater following Oregon's postgame press conferences and provides additional insight from inside Boone Pickens Stadium.

The Ducks have plenty of talent. The question after Saturday is whether Oregon's coaching staff can get that talent playing winning football before this season slips away.

The Oregon Ducks are 1-0, but Saturday's 34-27 victory over Boise State left plenty for Duck fans to discuss.

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory.com's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil open up the mailbag and answer subscriber questions following Oregon's season-opening victory inside Autzen Stadium.

Oregon entered the year ranked No. 2 nationally and carrying legitimate national championship expectations, but Boise State provided an immediate challenge. The Broncos grabbed multiple leads, took advantage of Oregon mistakes and remained within striking distance deep into the fourth quarter before the Ducks ultimately found a way to finish off the win.

Matt and Erik examine what should be viewed as legitimate concerns coming out of Week 1 and what could simply be attributed to the usual issues that come with a season opener.

The discussion includes Oregon's offensive performance, Dante Moore's impressive afternoon at quarterback, the Ducks' ability to create explosive plays and some of the inconsistencies that prevented the offense from completely taking control of the game.

They also dive into Oregon's defensive performance, the impact of penalties and other mental mistakes, and what the Ducks need to clean up moving forward.

With Oregon now turning its attention toward its first road game of the season at Oklahoma State, Matt and Erik also discuss what Saturday's performance might tell us about this team's ceiling and which areas need to improve quickly.

What does Dante Moore and the Oregon offense need to accomplish to take control of the game? Which areas of Boise State’s defense could the Ducks look to attack? On the other side of the football, the guys discuss the challenges Boise State could present Oregon’s defense and what needs to happen for the Ducks to keep the Broncos from hanging around.

Oregon opens the 2026 season Saturday afternoon against a familiar opponent in Boise State, and the latest edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast goes Behind Enemy Lines to get Duck fans caught up on everything surrounding the Broncos.

Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil are joined by Bronco Nation News publisher B.J. Rains to discuss where Boise State stands entering the new season and what Oregon should expect when the Broncos arrive at Autzen Stadium.

The conversation begins with the bigger picture surrounding Boise State, including how the program’s move to the Pac-12 has impacted excitement, perception and expectations around the school. Rains also weighs in on whether the conference change could ultimately provide Boise State with a cleaner path toward the College Football Playoff.

On the field, the discussion turns to veteran quarterback Maddox Madsen, who returns as a multi-year starter after also facing Oregon during the 2024 season. Rains explains the confidence surrounding Madsen and the role he is expected to have within Boise State’s offense.

The podcast also examines the Broncos’ long tradition of standout running backs and where Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines could fit into this year’s offense.

Defensively, Rains identifies potential game-changing players, discusses Mana Tuioti’s expected role and breaks down where Boise State appears strongest — and where questions remain.

Finally, the group discusses what needs to go right on both sides of the ball for Boise State to have a legitimate chance of pulling off an upset in Eugene.

Oregon football is officially back, and with the Ducks preparing for their season opener against Boise State, Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil are back with another edition of the Autzen Audibles Mailbag Podcast.

This week's mailbag focuses heavily on what Oregon fans should be watching for in Week 1 and what the opener could reveal about the Ducks heading into the 2026 season.

Prehm and Skopil discuss what they hope the biggest storyline will be coming out of Oregon's first game, along with which lingering questions surrounding the roster could begin to get answered against Boise State. That conversation includes Oregon's offensive line, special teams and a talented defensive front that will have an opportunity to establish itself early in the year.

The mailbag also dives into Oregon's offensive depth chart, including the battle to establish a third running back behind Jordon Davison and Dierre Hill Jr., and whether quarterback Akili Smith Jr. could find a role during his freshman season.

Finally, the guys break down the offensive line competition, including how injuries and strong fall camps have impacted Oregon's search for its fifth starter and whether the Ducks have enough trusted depth up front as the season begins.

(2:39) - What will be the storyline after week one against Boise State?
(11:46) - What's the biggest question that will be answered after week 1?

Oregon’s fall camp is essentially complete, and the Ducks are preparing to shift their attention toward game-week preparation for their 2026 season opener against Boise State.

On the latest episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil go position-by-position through Oregon’s defense to discuss the latest buzz, storylines and information coming out of fall camp.

Like our offensive breakdown, this isn’t a projected depth chart or an attempt to predict exactly who will take the field for Oregon’s first defensive snap of the season. Instead, Prehm and Skopil focus on what they’ve heard throughout August, what has stood out during conversations with Oregon’s coaches and players, and where each position appears to stand as the Ducks leave camp.

The discussion begins along Oregon’s defensive front, where the Ducks have spent the offseason developing a deep and versatile collection of defensive linemen and edge defenders. From there, the podcast examines a linebacker room featuring a mix of experience and emerging options before turning to a secondary with competition and versatility throughout the cornerback, safety and Star positions.

Which defensive players generated the most buzz during fall camp? Which position groups appear to have taken significant steps forward? Where could Oregon have difficult decisions to make because of its depth? And what questions still need to be answered once the Ducks begin playing games?

Prehm and Skopil break down everything they know and have heard about Oregon’s defense as fall camp comes to an end and the Ducks prepare to turn their full attention toward Boise State and the start of the 2026 season.

Oregon's fall camp is essentially in the books, and the Ducks are preparing to make the transition toward game-week preparation for their 2026 season opener against Boise State.

On the latest episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil go position-by-position through Oregon's offense to discuss the latest buzz, storylines and information coming out of fall camp.

This isn't a projected depth chart or an attempt to predict exactly who will be on the field for the first snap of the season. Instead, Prehm and Skopil focus on what they've heard throughout August, what stood out from conversations with Oregon's coaches and players, and where things appear to be trending as the Ducks close camp.

The discussion starts at quarterback, where Oregon has Dante Moore leading the offense and an intriguing collection of options behind him. From there, the podcast examines a running back room with plenty of competition, a receiver group featuring proven talent and emerging options, and a tight end position that has continued to develop throughout camp.

The offensive line also gets a full evaluation as Oregon works to identify its best combination before the opener.

Which position groups generated the most positive buzz? Where are there still questions that need to be answered? Which players have helped themselves the most during August?

Prehm and Skopil break down everything they know about Oregon's offense before the Ducks turn their attention fully toward Boise State and the start of the 2026 season.

Oregon football is deep into fall camp, and the latest episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast dives into several of the biggest storylines surrounding the Ducks as the season draws closer.

Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil begin with Oregon's backup quarterback competition and where things currently stand behind Dante Moore. With Dylan Raiola among the quarterbacks battling for the No. 2 job, the Ducks have an intriguing decision to make regarding who they trust to step onto the field if needed this fall.

From there, the discussion moves to one of the most talked-about position groups on Oregon's roster: the defensive line. The Ducks have generated plenty of buzz about their depth throughout camp, but how much of that hype should fans believe? Matt and Erik break down what they've heard, what they know about the personnel and whether Oregon legitimately has enough bodies to overwhelm teams up front.

The third segment examines Dan Lanning's comments following Oregon's recent scrimmage. Balls were on the ground, special teams had miscues and the quarterbacks were challenged to make smarter decisions. At the same time, players apparently weren't satisfied with the day's work and wanted to run afterward. What should fans actually take away from those comments?

Finally, the show closes with the Biletnikoff Award Watch List. Iverson Hooks and Jamari Johnson made the cut, while Jeremiah McClellan, Dakorien Moore and Evan Stewart did not. Matt and Erik discuss whether that makes sense and which Oregon pass catchers could ultimately emerge as the Ducks' biggest threats in 2026.

(17:47) Is the Hype Real on Oregon’s DL Depth?

(29:26) What we make of scrimmage comments (balls on the ground, special teams miscues, the team wanting to run after the scrimmage, QBs needing to be more smart, etc)

(38:18) Oregon receiver Iverson Hooks and Tight End Jamari Johnson were named to the 2026 Biletnikoff Award Watch List, but Jeremiah McClellan, Dakorien Moore, and Evan Stewart were not. Is that the right call?

Oregon's latest mailbag covers fall camp stock risers, the Ducks' uncertainty at kicker and punter and a hypothetical matchup between 2023 and 2026.

(0:00) Opening Mailbag

(1:08) What players' arrow is pointing north so far in fall camp?

(10:31) The kicking game is a total unknown, with Oregon needing to replace both its kicker and punter with also potentially an all-portal specialists unit change. How much does that scare you in a close Big Ten game?

DuckTerritory's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil offer insights from the first week of Oregon fall camp. Both Matt and Erik provide their two biggest takeaways of camp to date.

Here are the topics as they appear:

The value of 2025 class on this year's team (1:07)

Significance of naming specialist starters (7:50)

Evan Stewart's physical and emotional development (18:02)

What Brayden Platt's injury means for the LBers (24:21)

The Autzen Audibles crew answers Oregon football questions about expectations for a rebuilt offensive line, Dierre Hill’s role, roster updates and the Ducks’ health.

(2:50) What should our realistic expectations be for the OL? Considering the last time we had this new of a unit in ‘24, it looked abysmal early in the season

(17:01) Dan and Drew both mentioned Dierre working on doing more this year. Do you think we’ll see him lined up out wide more often? Do you think he starts in a two back set and then they can motion him out to receiver?

(25:45) What is your best guess for when rosters are updated with ht/wt?

(29:15) What is your read on where the team is at from a health and availability standpoint?

Oregon football enters the 2026 season with expectations as high as they have ever been, and the latest USA Today Coaches Poll only adds to the anticipation.

On a new episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory.com’s Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil break down Oregon’s No. 2 preseason ranking—the highest placement in program history in the Coaches Poll. The Ducks sit near the top of the national landscape as Dan Lanning prepares for his fifth season in Eugene and another run at the College Football Playoff.

Prehm and Skopil discuss what the ranking says about the current state of the program, the pressure that comes with being viewed as a national championship contender and the biggest questions Oregon must answer before the season begins.

The podcast also features observations and news from Oregon’s annual media day on August 3 inside Autzen Stadium. DuckTerritory spoke with 35 players, along with Lanning, to gather insight into the Ducks’ roster, leadership, offseason development and mindset entering fall camp.

From veteran returners to new faces expected to make an impact, the guys share some of the most notable takeaways from a busy afternoon in Eugene and preview the storylines that will shape Oregon’s preseason.

On this episode, DuckTerritory's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil send off contributor John Evans. Evans graduated from UO in the spring and is now covering Florida State for 247Sports. Evans makes his final Autzen Audibles appearance and looks back at favorite moments from his time covering the Ducks. Then the trio take a look at the Big Ten preseason poll. They discuss Oregon's placement as the predicted No. 2 team in the league, as well as what they make of the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year voting.

On this episode of the Autzen Audibles podcast, Oregon edge coach Kamran Araghi joins the show. Araghi was promoted to a full-time assistant role this offseason, but coaching the team's OLBs is nothing new. He explains how his responsibilities have changed and how the annual Oregon coast trip began before diving into break downs of every scholarship player in his room.

Oregon announced the promotion of Tyler Dean to the position of general manager in May. Dean joins DuckTerritory's Erik Skopil on the Autzen Audibles podcast to discuss his path to the new role, how his responsibilities might change and what the keys were to the 2026 Oregon offseason.

Oregon quarterbacks coach Koa Ka’ai joins the Autzen Audibles Podcast for an extensive conversation about his first offseason leading the position group and the development taking place inside one of the Ducks’ most important rooms.

Ka’ai discusses the additional responsibilities he has taken on since moving into the position, including Oregon’s demanding recruiting schedule and the opportunity to put his own stamp on the quarterback room after spending more than two years working alongside former offensive coordinator Will Stein.

The former Oregon player explains the identity he wants his quarterbacks to establish. Competitiveness is at the top of that list, but Ka’ai also wants the Ducks to remain connected, support one another and remember that football is supposed to be enjoyable.

Much of the conversation centers on Dante Moore and the growth Oregon has seen from its veteran quarterback. Ka’ai details how Moore has become more vocal, demanding and willing to hold teammates accountable without becoming demeaning. He also explains how Moore’s expanding understanding of defensive football and Oregon’s entire offensive operation has allowed the coaching staff to give him greater control at the line of scrimmage.

Ka’ai also provides an update on Nebraska transfer Dylan Raiola, including the physical transformation he has made since arriving in Eugene and his progress learning Oregon’s system.

The discussion explores how the Ducks develop experienced backup quarterbacks, the individualized plans Oregon creates for each player and the message Marcus Mariota once delivered about the importance of maintaining a healthy quarterback room.

Ka’ai also explains Oregon’s golf-inspired approach to competition, how the staff evaluates quarterbacks in the NIL era and why relationships throughout a high school can reveal as much as throwing talent.

On this episode of the Autzen Audibles podcast, Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil get together to discuss the biggest wildcards for the 2026 Duck football team. They each select one aspect of the team's offense and then defense and discuss why it could be make-or-break.

Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil break down where they feel most confident about Oregon football’s offense and defense entering the 2026 season.

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory’s Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil conclude their position-by-position preview of the Oregon football roster with a closer look at the Ducks’ defensive back room entering the 2026 season.

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory’s Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil continue their position-by-position preview of the Oregon football roster with a closer look at the Ducks’ linebacker room entering the 2026 season.

After breaking down the defensive line, the series now shifts to the second level of Oregon’s defense. Prehm and Skopil go player-by-player through the linebacker position, discussing the projected depth chart, returning contributors, players pushing for bigger roles, and the biggest questions facing the group before the season begins.

Oregon has talent and athleticism at linebacker, but this is also a room where roles, rotations, and consistency will be major offseason storylines. The Ducks return important pieces such as Jerry Mixon and Devon Jackson, while also needing continued development from the rest of the room to build reliable depth behind the top options.

The discussion focuses on how Oregon’s linebackers fit within Chris Hampton’s defense and how the position can help tie everything together between a talented defensive front and a secondary filled with playmakers. From run fits to coverage responsibilities to communication, the linebacker room will be central to Oregon’s defensive success.

The episode also dives into potential breakout candidates, special teams value, and how the Ducks could structure their linebacker rotation during the 2026 season.

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory’s Erik Skopil and Matt Prehm continue their position-by-position preview of the Oregon football roster with a closer look at the Ducks’ defensive line room entering the 2026 season.

After working through several offensive position groups, the series now shifts to the defensive side of the ball and starts in the trenches. Skopil and Prehm go player-by-player through Oregon’s defensive line, discussing the key returners, expected contributors, young players pushing for roles, and the overall expectations for a group that should be one of the most important units on the roster.

Oregon enters the season with high-end talent and proven experience up front, headlined by veteran pieces such as A’Mauri Washington and Bear Alexander. The Ducks also have several rotational options and younger players who could factor into the depth chart as the coaching staff looks to build a reliable group capable of holding up over the course of a Big Ten schedule.

The discussion focuses on how Oregon’s defensive line can impact the entire defense. If the Ducks can consistently control the line of scrimmage, generate pressure, and create disruption against the run, it should make life easier for the linebackers and secondary behind them.

The episode also dives into the biggest questions facing the room, potential breakout candidates, and how Oregon’s defensive front could shape the ceiling of the 2026 defense.

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory’s Erik Skopil and Matt Prehm continue their offseason position preview series with a closer look at Oregon’s offensive line room entering the 2026 season.

After previously breaking down the Ducks’ quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, and tight ends, the focus now shifts to the group responsible for making Oregon’s offense go. Skopil and Prehm go player-by-player through the offensive line room, discussing returning experience, projected starters, key depth pieces, and the biggest questions facing the Ducks up front.

Oregon has consistently recruited and developed at a high level along the offensive line, and the 2026 group will once again be expected to play a major role in the team’s offensive success. The Ducks have veteran talent, promising young players, and multiple options at several spots, giving the coaching staff flexibility as it builds the best five-man combination.

The conversation includes expectations for the interior offensive line, the tackle spots, and which players could push for larger roles during the season. With Oregon looking to compete at the top of the Big Ten and nationally, offensive line play will be one of the biggest factors in determining the Ducks’ ceiling.

On this episode of the Autzen Audibles podcast, DuckTerritory's Erik Skopil and Matt Prehm convene to break down Oregon's wide receivers and tight ends. The two discuss each player in both rooms, and then have a wider discussion about the pass-offense in 2026.

Oregon’s 2027 recruiting class added major momentum Monday, and the Autzen Audibles Podcast broke it all down.

On the latest episode, DuckTerritory’s Erik Skopil and Matt Prehm discussed Oregon’s three newest verbal commitments — defensive lineman Achilles Reyna, tight end George VanSandt and wide receiver Malachi Garlington — and what the additions mean for the Ducks’ overall recruiting outlook.

The trio of commitments helped Oregon jump into the Top 10 of the 2027 Team Recruiting Rankings. The Ducks now sit No. 8 nationally with 17 verbal commitments, 224.75 total points and an 89.29 average per commit. Oregon is just 0.12 points behind Clemson for the No. 7 spot, giving the Ducks a realistic path to continue climbing as the summer recruiting calendar heats up.

Skopil and Prehm also discussed the significance of Oregon landing two in-state prospects in VanSandt and Garlington. VanSandt, a Central Catholic tight end, was previously committed to Arkansas before reopening his recruitment. Garlington, a Nelson High School wide receiver, earned an Oregon offer after a strong camp performance before briefly committing to Washington State and later flipping to the Ducks.

Reyna, a massive 6-foot-8 defensive line prospect from Rainier Beach High School in Seattle, had long been viewed as an Oregon lean before making his commitment official.

Erik Skopil reveals and explains his Top 30 Oregon football player rankings, with Dante Moore leading a loaded Ducks roster.

Below is the 10:

1. Quarterback Dante Moore
2. Outside linebacker Teitum Tuioti
3. Wide receiver Dakorien Moore
4. Offensive lineman Iapani Laloulu
5. Cornerback Brandon Finney Jr.
6. Tight End Jamari Johnson

On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, Matt Prehm, Erik Skopil, and John Evans shift their focus to the defensive side of the football and project Oregon’s post-spring two-deep heading into the summer. The guys go position by position, breaking down where things stand along the defensive line, at linebacker, in the secondary, and with the key depth pieces who could push for larger roles when fall camp begins.

The discussion starts up front, where Oregon has the potential to field one of the most talented defensive fronts in the country, led by names like Matayo Uiagalelei, Teitum Tuioti, Bear Alexander, and A’Mauri Washington. From there, the crew examines the linebacker room, the cornerback competition, and a safety group that features both proven production and intriguing upside.

With Chris Hampton taking over as defensive coordinator, Oregon has plenty of talent to work with, but also several depth-chart questions still to sort through before the season arrives.

Beyond the official testing numbers, there were also a few intriguing observations from players like Brock Thomas and Jordon Davison, even without combine-style participation.

Matt and Erik also discuss some of the most notable player comments from the day about Oregon's 2026 team and why there's already a growing belief inside the program that next season's roster could again be built for major success. All that and more is packed into this latest episode of Autzen Audibles.
