Author: 247Sports August 20, 2026 Duration: 48:50
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.(1:53) Oregon Back Up QB Battle(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.
