Oregon QB Moore Carted Off After Head Hit

Oregon quarterback Dante Moore was carted off the field with 10:05 remaining in the second quarter after being hit in the head by USC linebacker Desman Stephens III.

Moore escaped pressure, took off running, and was struck in the head as he began to slide. He remained on the field as Oregon players and medical staff gathered around before being placed on a stretcher with a neck brace. Moore was taken by cart toward an ambulance outside the team's tunnel.

Stephens was ejected for targeting. Backup quarterback Dylan Raiola entered and connected with Evan Stewart for a three-yard touchdown on his first throw. Raiola and Stewart held up five fingers in support of Moore after the score. slot-chickenroad.org
