- The injury occurred in the second quarter when Moore scrambled for an 11-yard gain and began to slide; Stephens delivered a shoulder hit to the quarterback's head, drawing a targeting penalty and ejection.
- Backup quarterback Dylan Raiola replaced Moore, passing for 289 yards and two touchdowns to secure the win. Oregon head coach Dan Lanning confirmed on Sunday that Moore suffered a concussion but avoided further injuries.
