Oregon Head Coach Dan Lanning didn’t hold back in the postgame press conference.
On Saturday, Oregon had to play backup QB Dylan Raiola after starting QB Dante Moore was knocked out by a vicious hit to the head.
Raiola put together a monster 289-yard, two-TD game to blow out USC 41-27 at the LA Coliseum.

After the game, Lanning urged recruits to come to Oregon while trashing USC.
“If you’re interested in winning football games, you’re from this area, you should go to Oregon. You want to go to a Chris Brown concert, you should go here (USC).”
Lanning went on to mock USC fans for actually showing up to the game.
“I’ve watched three of their TV games. I haven’t seen a game packed yet, but we were here, it was packed tonight. So I guess when the Ducks show up, that’s how you fill up the Coliseum.”

The Oregon head coach also addressed the brutal play that got Moore knocked out.
“Credit to Lincoln, he asked about Dante after the game. I don’t think that’s anything he coaches, but there’s a reason targeting exists in football, and that’s clear-as-day targeting. It’s a shame that that happened to a good player.”
“Disgusting play.”
