Moore Knocked Out After Brutal Hit

Oregon quarterback Dante Moore was knocked unconscious after taking a brutal head hit during a slide against USC, forcing him to leave the game on a stretcher.

Oregon quarterback Dante Moore, a potential first overall pick in the 2027 NFL draft, sustained a head injury while sliding during Saturday's game against USC. After Moore's knee hit the ground, USC's Desmond Stephens drove his shoulder into Moore's head, slamming the back of his head into the ground.

Moore immediately exhibited the fencing response that frequently comes with serious head trauma and remained on the ground for several minutes before being placed on a stretcher and carted to an ambulance. He was reported to be moving his hands and feet. Stephens was ejected from the game for targeting, and a brawl nearly broke out as Oregon players reacted to the hit. wlop.pl
