Oregon Ducks Fans Color To Wear vs. Nebraska Cornhuskers In Autzen Stadium

The Oregon Ducks welcome the Nebraska Cornhuskers to Autzen Stadium this Saturday for their first-ever Big Ten matchup under the lights, a clash with added stakes after Oregon’s recent home loss to UCLA. The Ducks, seeking to rebound from a turnover-plagued defeat and a fourth-quarter quarterback change from Dylan Raiola to Brock Thomas, face a Nebraska team with deep ties to Oregon’s new signal-caller—Raiola’s father, Dominic, was a Nebraska All-American, and his brother Dayton switched commitments from the Cornhuskers to Oregon.

Meanwhile, Oregon’s quarterback competition remains fluid, with Dante Moore still recovering from a concussion suffered against USC and expected to be cleared by Wednesday’s injury report. Fans are urged to show support in green, honoring the Ducks’ color schedule as the teams meet in a game where momentum and defense will be key, especially with Nebraska boasting the nation’s top third-down defense.

The rivalry carries extra weight for Eugene, where Oregon last defeated Nebraska 42–35 in 2017, and the weather adds another layer—rain is possible Saturday, with temperatures dropping to near freezing by nightfall. Coach Dan Lanning’s squad will look to avoid a second straight home loss, while Nebraska’s offensive line and defense will aim to stifle Oregon’s struggling passing attack, which has struggled with turnovers and finding rhythm behind Raiola.
