Story summary

Dante Moore, the starting quarterback for Oregon Ducks, won't face the UCLA Bruins on Saturday as he is still recovering from a scary collision with USC linebacker Desman Stephens during a game on September 26. The incident left Moore needing to be taken off the field on a stretcher and in an ambulance, leading him into concussion protocol. In Moore's place, backup quarterback Dylan Raiola, who transferred to Oregon from Nebraska this year, will start the game. Raiola has already thrown for 413 yards with five touchdowns in two appearances this season. Stephens was later suspended by his coach and issued an apology for celebrating after hitting Moore.
