After a performance that Dan Lanning and the Oregon Ducks would like to put past them last weekend, another massive game is coming to Eugene this weekend, with the home team hosting the Nebraska Cornhuskers in a matchup that could end up being very revealing for both squads.
There is a lot of talk and intrigue surrounding this one, particularly at the quarterback position for the Ducks. Will it be Dante Moore after a potential return from concussion, or Dylan Raiola after getting benched in the second half vs. UCLA? If neither of them, the probable outcome is Brock Thomas under center for the Ducks, making his first career start.
While we may not get the final answer on Thursday night, the second Big Ten Availability report gives us an update on the Duck's outlook, and it's not great as far as the status of wide receiver Evan Stewart goes.
On Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday evenings, the Big Ten Conference will release the statuses of several players, with teams classifying them as out, doubtful, or questionable.
A final availability report will then be released two hours prior to kickoff on Saturday. Here is a look at the second availability report for the Ducks and Cornhuskers.
