Dan Lanning on Oregon's road mindset, his offensive line rotation and stopping Wyatt Young
Summary
-
Oregon rotated seven offensive linemen against Boise State while still working toward a starting five, and Dan Lanning said freshmen Tommy Tofi and Immanuel Iheanacho must learn the system, play consistently and outperform the players ahead of them rather than receiving an immediate promotion.
-
Oregon tackle Ziyare Addison drew Lanning's praise for slowing the game down mentally, becoming more consistent and consequently playing faster instead of trying to force plays.
-
Oklahoma State's offense was expected by Lanning to emphasize establishing the run, sideline-to-sideline screens and trick plays, a structure he said would leave Oregon relatively few conventional pass-rush opportunities.
-
Oklahoma State's defensive simulated pressures and changeups were identified by Lanning as a difficult preparation problem for Oregon.
-
Oklahoma State receiver Wyatt Young was singled out in Oregon's preparation for finding space and creating difficult matchups, with Lanning emphasizing how the offense's fast operation compounds the challenge.
