Dante Moore's connection with Dakorien Moore is the most dominant force in the Oregon Ducks offense, with the pair's versatility and speed downfield making them an instant threat last season.
The 65-yard touchdown against Oklahoma State was their first scoring connection, and their bond continued to strengthen throughout the year. However, Dakorien suffered a leg injury toward the end of the season, which slowed their connection.
Dakorien finished the season with 34 catches for 497 yards and four total touchdowns. Dante, on the other hand, had a big season throwing the football, eclipsing 3,500 yards through the air and 30 passing touchdowns. With both now fully healthy and continuing to strengthen their bond this offseason, which included a trip to Tokyo, the two are primed for special individual seasons.
If both can reach their ceiling, the Oregon Ducks offense will be unstoppable and headed for their best chance at a title. However, USC's defense has to find a way to break up this connection.
Making Dante Moore second-guess and ultimately overthink his decisions and reads on the field is key for the Trojans. This begins with making him think twice about his throws and when to pull the trigger.
The question is, can Gary Patterson come up with a game plan to make Dante Moore overthink his decisions? The Oregon Ducks' offense will be a challenge for the USC defense, and it remains to be seen if the Trojans can come up with a solution to break up the Moore-to-Moore connection.
