7:38 p.m.: Raiola with a 29-yard prayer that Dakorien Moore hauls down for the go-ahead touchdown. Oregon leads 34-27 with 8:35 to play.

7:27 p.m.: Oregon has to punt for the first time with Raiola in, and USC responds with a 7-play, 75-yard touchdown drive to tie this thing at 27-27 with 12:41 to go.

The fourth quarter is just starting here in Los Angeles, where the Ducks lead 27-20 with the Trojans driving.

With 8:33 to go in the third quarter, Oregon leads 20-17.

6:42 p.m.: So far so good for the Ducks under Dylan Raiola, who just led UO to its third score in as many drives. This one was set up by a 62-yard screen pass to Dierre Hill Jr., which was then converted into a touchdown when Hill punched it in from a yard out.

5:38 p.m.: Moore’s injury puts Oregon backup quarterback Dylan Raiola in for his first competitive reps with the Ducks. Oregon runs on the first play for a small gain, then Raiola finds Evan Stewart for a 3-yard touchdown pass to Evan Stewart to put Oregon up 10-7 with 9:04 to go in the second quarter.

5:25 p.m.: Dante Moore injury

An ugly and scary moment here at the Coliseum, as Dante Moore is down on the field after a late and massive hit from linebacker Desman Stephens II. The cart is out and he’s currently being attended to by both teams’ training staffs.

Stephens has been ejected for targeting.

Moore could be seen moving his extremities and was just loaded into an ambulance.

The scene:

5:17 p.m.: USC strikes first here in the second quarter.

After an Oregon three-and-out, the Trojans made pretty quick work up the field — buoyed by a hands-to-face penalty — that was capped by a 31-yard touchdown pass from Jayden Maiava to Kayden Dixon-Wyatt. 

With 12:53 to go in the second quarter, USC leads 7-3. 

5:07 p.m.: End of first quarter

A defensive slugfest, just as we all predicted, right? The first quarter ends with Oregon leading 3-0 and driving deep in their own territory.

4:56 p.m.: Oregon’s first offensive drive begins perfectly with a 45-yard Jordon Davison run. But Oregon’s drive stalls in the red zone after a pair of holding penalties, forcing the Ducks to settle for a field goal.

With 3:34 to play in the first, Oregon leads 3-0.

4:42 p.m.: Some ups and downs there for Oregon’s first defensive possession. On one hand, the Trojans carved through Oregon’s passing defense pretty easily to make it into the red zone. But sacks from Jerry Mixon and Bear Alexander forced a field goal, which the Trojans missed.

It’s still scoreless with 9:05 to play in the first quarter.

Pre-game

4:35 p.m.: It’s about 85 degrees here just before kickoff. Stadium is about three-quarters full. Ducks will kick first and get the ball after halftime.

3:30 p.m.: Hello from Los Angeles, where it is clear, hot and the Ducks and Trojans are both warming up down on the field.
