The Oregon Ducks‘ season in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">NCAAF</a> is one of the strongest in years. Twelve consecutive wins during the regular season, along with the latest victory in the Big 10 Championship, have made Dan Lanning’s team the only undefeated squad in the league. However, for Dillon Gabriel, this isn’t over yet, and they have their next goal in sight.


 


<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dillon-gabriel">Gabriel</a> is one of the four nominees for the Heisman Trophy, alongside Travis Hunter, Ashton Jeanty, and Cam Ward. However, in a recent interview with ESPN, the talented quarterback made it clear that both he and his teammates are focused on the upcoming playoffs.



“Just getting the tone for what’s to come,” Gabriel said on SportsCenter. “We’re really excited to have that opportunity and did our due diligence to earn our way to have that opportunity and took full advantage of it. It was a big blessing, a lot of fun.”



Without a doubt, Gabriel’s season has been exceptional, and he was one of the key players in leading his team this far. Throughout the season, the QB completed 73.2% of his passes for 3,558 yards and 28 touchdowns, with just six interceptions. Definitely, an extraordinary campaign.

<h2>Dan Lanning praises Gabriel’s talent</h2>



While Dan Lanning was the architect of the Ducks’ successful campaign off the field, it is clear that Dillon Gabriel’s talent has helped his teammates develop in the best possible way on the field.


 


<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Oregon</a>‘s head coach is well aware of the talent his quarterback possesses and, in statements to the press, he made sure to highlight the value he places on Gabriel not only as a player but also as a person.

The team coached by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-lanning">Dan Lanning</a> recently triumphed in the Big 10 Championship Game with a solid 45-37 victory over Penn State. Now, what’s ahead is nothing less than the Rose Bowl, set to kick off in early 2025.



The opponent will be determined by the matchup between the Ohio State Buckeyes, led by Will Howard, and the Tennessee Volunteers, a team led on the field by the talented Nico Iamaleava.



Whoever the opponent may be, the Ducks will undoubtedly face a tough challenge. The game will take place on January 1st at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California.

The Oregon Ducks‘ <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">NCAAF</a> season couldn’t have gone better. With an undefeated record throughout the regular season, Dan Lanning‘s squad also won the Big Ten Championship Game after defeating Penn State and secured the No. 1 seed in the playoffs. The coach, eagerly awaiting the Rose Bowl, is already anticipating what will be a crucial game.


 


“We couldn’t be more thrilled to be a part of this game,” Lanning said. “Being on this side of the country this is a game you dream of the opportunity to coach in. This is one of these games, this is one of the ones that I haven’t got to do yet. It’s certainly a thrill for me.”



In addition, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-lanning">Lanning</a> revealed the conversation he had with Phil Knight, who had once asked the coach if the Ducks would ever play in such an important game for the program as the Rose Bowl.



“Obviously a big fan of our program and influencer on our program is Phil Knight and Phil has always told me his No. 1 goal is can we get to the Rose Bowl? I’m extremely ecstatic that our team gets to be a part of such a historic game, the Granddaddy of Them All. This will be a fun one for us and I know our players are looking forward to preparing for that moment to get out on that field.”

Finally, the HC shared his feelings about what’s to come: “What an opportunity for us,” Lanning said. “I’m excited about getting the opportunity to compete in the Rose Bowl. I think that regardless the end-all goal, you’re going to get to play some unbelievable teams in that process. I’m excited that we get to go play against great competition. That’s what playoff moments are about.”

<h2>Dillon Gabriel, Heisman Trophy finalist</h2>



The outstanding campaign by the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Oregon Ducks</a> has found in Dillon Gabriel a key pillar, helping lead the team through the most crucial moments of the season. So much so that the talented quarterback of Dan Lanning’s team, Dillon Gabriel, has been named a finalist for the coveted Heisman Trophy. This honor holds great significance in college football.


 


Gabriel made it clear how he feels about this magnificent season alongside his teammates: “The whole season has its own challenge within the day, within the week. Gosh, you appreciate the journey; the work to get just to where you are right now, where your feet are. Because you understand that you put in all the time and effort. You’ve sacrificed. You wanted to accomplish this goal.”



Oregon’s quarterback is one of four players heading to New York, where the 90th winner of the top individual award in college football will be announced on Saturday. In addition to Gabriel, the other nominees are: Cam Ward (Miami Hurricanes), Travis Hunter (Colorado Buffaloes), and Ashton Jeanty (Boise State Broncos).



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dillon-gabriel">Dillon Gabriel</a> became the fifth player in Oregon Ducks history to be nominated for this prestigious award. Previously, the nominees were Joey Harrington (2001), LaMichael James (2010), Marcus Mariota (2014, winner), and Bo Nix (2023).

“This guy deserves every single thing that comes his way. I told him that earlier this week when he got Player of the Year in the Big Ten. If anybody can’t watch that performance and recognize how special he is. And maybe the most special play to me was the third-and-one when he wanted it in his hands to get that tough yard,” Lanning said.

“This team believes in them. They’re grateful every day they get to step on the field with them. He’s about connection and people first. But the poise he shows in big games is unmeasured.

<h2>Lanning knows they defeated a tough opponent</h2>



What many had speculated before the game ultimately came to pass. Penn State proved to be a worthy opponent for the Ducks, and it was head coach Dan <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football/ncaaf-news-ducks-hc-dan-lanning-makes-bold-confession-after-winning-the-big-10-championship">Lanning who, once the game was over, sent a strong message regarding what had transpired.</a>



“I don’t have a lot to say except for how proud I am of these guys. We’ve talked about moments this year where, you know, guys have to put each other on their backs, and I thought the offense tonight did an unbelievable job. I thought the defense made a critical stop when it mattered most, but I’ll say this: the belief in our team throughout the game—it never wavered,” the HC said to the press.


 


“We have a bunch of guys in there that love each other and worked their tails off tonight to come out on the other side of a victory. So, kudos to them. I mean, that offense is really hard to stop. You know, they do an unbelievable job over there. So, it was a battle. It was a battle till the very end. So, proud of our players, really proud of their resiliency,” he finally concluded.

<h2>HC Dan Lanning expressed his feelings about his team</h2>



In victories like this, the effort is often a collective one, not just from a single player. This was made clear by coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-lanning">Dan Lanning</a>, who expressed how pleased he was not only with his players but also with his coaching staff.



“I’m really proud of our players. They accomplished this. I didn’t have anything to do with it. I just get to keep the train on the tracks. We have unbelievable leadership. We have an unbelievable coaching staff. And the Big Ten’s tough. I think tonight’s game is a great example of that. This is a tough league. It’s hard to go out there and win. And to be able to do what our guys did tonight, I’m really proud of their effort, to give just a little bit extra. I thought everybody gave a little extra tonight, and that showed up,” Lanning proudly stated.

This <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">NCAAF</a> season continues to bring joy to the Oregon Ducks program, now crowned with a long-awaited title. The victory over Penn State gave Dillon Gabriel and his teammates the Big 10 Championship, and now they’re all-in for the playoffs. Dan Lanning, the mastermind behind this team, knows just how hard it was to secure this trophy.


 


Although the year isn’t over yet for the Ducks, their immediate focus is now on the playoffs. However, they’re far from hiding their joy, and for now, it’s time to celebrate—at least for a little while—before turning their attention to planning what’s next.



The Nittany Lions proved to be a tough opponent for Oregon, something <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-lanning">Dan Lanning</a> made clear in his post-game statements to the media. Winning a title against such a formidable rival holds double the value.



“I don’t have a lot to say except for how proud I am of these guys. We’ve talked about moments this year where, you know, guys have to put each other on their backs, and I thought the offense tonight did an unbelievable job. I thought the defense made a critical stop when it mattered most, but I’ll say this: the belief in our team throughout the game—it never wavered,” the HC stated.

Additionally, Lanning admitted how tough it was to defeat Penn State: “We have a bunch of guys in there that love each other and worked their tails off tonight to come out on the other side of a victory. So, kudos to them. I mean, that offense is really hard to stop. You know, they do an unbelievable job over there. So, it was a battle. It was a battle till the very end. So, proud of our players, really proud of their resiliency.”

<h2>The Playoffs, the Ducks’ next goal</h2>



The first goal has been achieved: the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Oregon Ducks</a> are the new Big 10 Championship champions. As for what’s next, Dan Lanning remained calm and emphasized that now, at this moment, it’s time to enjoy the accomplishment, with plenty of time ahead to prepare for his team’s next immediate objective.



“I’ll be honest, this is the furthest thing from my mind right now. I’m worried about tomorrow, I’m worried the next day, the next play. I think that’s how you get there. If you start putting the end goal in sight — I don’t think it’s any secret what this team wants to accomplish — but you don’t get there by just looking at it. It takes work. I’m thinking right now, how can we improve and get better. And there’s a lot more we can grow from in that game in all phases. That’s where my focus is at. I think when you focus on the process, the rest takes care of itself.”


 


The coach is already focusing on what’s ahead, and while it’s time to celebrate, there’s also a need to stay grounded and begin getting his players back to full strength so they can be in the best possible shape for the next game.

<h2>The added value of defeating a tough opponent</h2>



Dan Lanning was ecstatic after securing the title, not only for winning a championship following the immense effort of his players but also for doing so against a worthy opponent like the Penn State Nittany Lions.



“I’m just so proud of our team. We’ve had moments where our defense had the offense’s back. Tonight, the offense had the defense’s back. It was a battle back and forth. That’s a good football team. They’re tough to prepare for, but our guys had just enough. There was just enough time for us to take care of it, and to finish it like that, with that physicality—that’s what I love to see,” Lanning stated.

The stage is set for an exciting Big Ten Championship: the undefeated <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Oregon Ducks</a> take on the Penn State Nittany Lions at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. Ahead of the title game, Penn State head coach James Franklin issued a clear comment about Oregon quarterback Dillon Gabriel.



Gabriel has been one of the best quarterbacks in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ncaa">NCAA</a> this season. He helped guide the Ducks to an undefeated regular season and will look to hoist the Big Ten Championship on December 7. The number one ranked team in the nation enters this contest as favorites, but Penn State hopes to spoil Oregon’s perfect debut season in the conference.



Despite skepticism, the Ducks have been able to translate their PAC-12 dominance into the Big Ten. Under the leadership of Dan Lanning, and Dillon Gabriel’s stellar campaign, Oregon established their name and have become the school to beat in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">college football</a>. The nation’s yardstick changed its address to Eugene.



Ahead of the most important league game of the year, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/penn-state">Nittany Lions</a> head coach James Franklin spoke on the big challenge ahead when they take on Lanning, Gabriel, and the best overall offense in the Big Ten.

“For me, the thing that stands out about him? You know, it seems like he’s been playing college football for like the last ten years,” Franklin said, via On3. “He’s just so poised and relaxed. You watch him play. He just looks so relaxed. He looks so poised. You’re not going to give him a whole lot that he hasn’t seen before.“

<h2>Gabriel’s stats </h2>



Like Franklin said, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dillon-gabriel">Gabriel</a> is not a Regular Joe in college football. The second-year senior quarterback put on a sensational season with the Ducks. Gabriel transferred to Eugene after spending the previous two years in Oklahoma’s program. Before his stay in Norman, Gabriel had been three years in UCF.



In 2024, Gabriel amassed 3,275 passing yards, 24 touchdowns, and 6 interceptions. The Ducks’ quarterback added 175 rushing yards and seven touchdowns to his season resumé.



<h2>Oregon secures Gabriel’s successor</h2>



As Gabriel is set to depart for the NFL in the upcoming offseason, Lanning and the Ducks have inked their heir to the QB1 job. Five-star QB Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, flipped his commitment from California to Oregon and is set to become the quarterback of the future in Eugene.

The Oregon Ducks are the only team in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">NCAAF</a> to finish the regular season undefeated, with 12 wins and no losses. Much of this success can be attributed to the stellar play of their starting QB, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dillon-gabriel">Dillon Gabriel</a>, who is expected to head to the NFL next season. For this reason, Dan Lanning and his coaching staff have already secured his replacement for what lies ahead.


 


The player in question is none other than five-star QB Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele, who ultimately chose the Ducks program over California. The news was confirmed by journalist Hayes Fawcett through his X (formerly Twitter) account.



“BREAKING: On300 Five-Star QB Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele has Flipped from Cal to Oregon! The 6’3 225 QB from Ewa Beach, HI had been Committed to the Golden Bears since July,” Fawcett stated. 



The talented quarterback is considered one of the best in his category, and at the last moment, he chose to commit to the Oregon program, where he will be coached by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dan-lanning">Dan Lanning</a> next season.

<h2>The Ducks’ defense is significantly reinforced</h2>



The agreement with talented QB Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele isn’t the only one the prestigious West Coast program has made. In addition, Dan Lanning secured a commitment from a key defensive player for the upcoming year.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/college-football/georgia-star-dan-jackson-drops-bold-promise-on-gameplan-for-texas-arch-manning-quinn-ewers"></div>


In this case, the player who chose to join the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Ducks</a> is five-star plus+ CB Na’eem Offord, who rejected the possibility of joining Ohio State to commit to Oregon. The news was once again confirmed by Hayes Fawcett.



“BREAKING Five-Star Plus+ CB Na’eem Offord has flipped his commitment from Ohio State to Oregon, per @Hayesfawcett3,” Fawcett stated.

<h2>The Ducks’ offense adds a new name</h2>



The news keeps coming for the Oregon program, as they not only secured a new quarterback and a cornerback, but <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football/ncaaf-news-dan-lanning-won-recruitment-battle-against-gators-and-secured-key-player-for-ducks">Dan Lanning also outlasted the Florida Gators to land the services of a talented wide receiver.</a>

This season, the Oregon Ducks were the only team to finish the regular season undefeated. Despite the excellent performance displayed this year in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">NCAAF</a>, Dan Lanning and his staff are already looking ahead, securing an important offensive player who was courted by none other than the Florida Gators.


 


Twelve consecutive victories, with no defeats in sight. And ahead, none other than the Big Ten Championship Game against Penn State on Saturday, December 7th. The <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/oregon-ducks">Ducks</a>‘ season has undoubtedly been flawless, and to maintain this momentum, reinforcements for the upcoming season are crucial.



Fortunately for Dan Lanning, the player who has committed to the Oregon program is the five-star wide receiver Dallas Wilson, a player who could make a significant impact on the Ducks’ offense.



The news was confirmed through the official Oregon Ducks X (formerly Twitter) account @oregonfootball: “Dynamic playmaker. Welcome to the family, @18Dallaswilson!”

 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/college-football/texas-longhorns-qb-arch-manning-secures-young-star-for-the-2025-ncaaf-season"></div>


“Out West, dialogue between Oregon and Wilson was still strong Tuesday night,” reported Steve Wiltfong from On3. “So much so I think they’d be surprised if he decommitted after being the mainstay of the class for so long.”



Regarding his arrival at the Ducks, Wilson stated: “It’s been my dream school since forever, like since I opened my eyes as a baby it’s been my dream school. Coach Lanning, he just made it ten times better. Great support system, they love you as a person.”



<h2>What’s next for the Oregon Ducks?</h2>



The upcoming season is still underway, although its regular season has already come to an end. The Ducks finished the regular season undefeated, with Dillon Gabriel being one of the standout players of the year.
