The injury report submitted to the Big Ten, as reported by Rob Moseley of goducks.com and posted at Duck Sports Central:

Questionable: DB Theran Johnson, QB Austin Novosad

Out: WR Dillon Gresham, DB Dorian Brew, OL Kawika Rogers, ILB Dylan Williams, ILB Brayden Platt, OL Bryce Boulton, WR Jack Ressler, WR Evan Stewart

Novosad out is jarring news. though Zachary Neel of Ducks Wire reported that he is in uniform and warming up. Rogers' injury leaves the interior line rotation with Dave Iuli and Emmanuel Pregnon as the likely starters, the versatile Matthew Bedford and freshman Douglas Utu as first off the bench.

Two linebackers out leaves it up to Bryce Boettcher, Devon Jackson, Jerry Mixon and Kamar Mothudi, with freshman Gavin Nix waiting his turn.

Looking for Dante Moore to have a big day, the Oregon defense to put the clamps on a pedestrian offense. Game is on CBS or streaming on Paramount, scheduled to start at 12:30.
