Dylan Raiola led No. 20 Oregon to a 41-27 victory over No. 12 USC on Saturday night after star quarterback Dante Moore suffered what multiple outlets described as a frightening injury during the game. Raiola completed passes for 289 yards and two touchdowns in his relief appearance.
One outlet reported that Desman Stephens' late hit on Moore sent the Oregon quarterback to the hospital. The loss marked USC's fifth consecutive defeat to the Ducks under head coach Lincoln Riley.
According to reporting, Moore had called a players-only meeting following Oregon's loss to Oklahoma State the previous week, which led to an improved performance against USC before his injury forced the quarterback change.
