For one of the biggest regular-season games in recent memory, the Oregon Ducks went all out on the recruiting front over the weekend, hosting many of their top commits and targets for the game vs. the USC Trojans. The results were everything you could have asked for.
Dan Lanning’s team made a statement on the field, winning 42-27 while leaning on their depth with several starters missing time due to injuries. It was a culture win, with the defense stepping up to the plate and holding USC to just 52 rushing yards, while the offense found ways to piece the Trojans apart throughout the day.

Unsurprisingly, recruits loved what they saw, none more than 5-star offensive tackle Immanuel Iheanacho, who committed to Oregon earlier this summer.
Iheanacho took to social media after the game to troll the Trojans a bit, saying that he was unsurprised to see Oregon dominate this game.
Iheanacho also popped up on 4-star OL Tommy Tofi’s Instagram story with a thumbs down and the USC “V for Victory” hand symbol upside down.
It was a great win for Oregon, and one that obviously resonated with recruits as they saw the physicality play a huge part in the Ducks‘ win.
