Dante Moore, Oregon quarterback, was carted off the field on Saturday (September 26, 2026) after he suffered a serious injury during the game against Southern California inside Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum. Moore was hit roughly by Southern California linebacker Desman Stephens during a slide in the second quarter.
The incident occurred just 10 minutes into the second quarter when Moore was sliding to complete an 11-yard run to the USC 12 when Stephens came in low and hit him in the head and chest with his shoulder. The hit resulted in his ejection, triggering chaos on the field while Moore was receiving immediate medical attention.
