Autzen Audibles: DuckTerritory's Oregon athletics podcast

DuckTerritory's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil offer insights from the first week of Oregon fall camp. Both Matt and Erik provide their two biggest takeaways of camp to date.
Here are the topics as they appear:
The value of 2025 class on this year's team (1:07)
Significance of naming specialist starters (7:50)
Evan Stewart's physical and emotional development (18:02)
What Brayden Platt's injury means for the LBers (24:21)

The Autzen Audibles crew answers Oregon football questions about expectations for a rebuilt offensive line, Dierre Hill’s role, roster updates and the Ducks’ health.
(2:50) What should our realistic expectations be for the OL? Considering the last time we had this new of a unit in ‘24, it looked abysmal early in the season
(17:01) Dan and Drew both mentioned Dierre working on doing more this year. Do you think we’ll see him lined up out wide more often? Do you think he starts in a two back set and then they can motion him out to receiver?
(25:45) What is your best guess for when rosters are updated with ht/wt?
(29:15) What is your read on where the team is at from a health and availability standpoint?

Oregon football enters the 2026 season with expectations as high as they have ever been, and the latest USA Today Coaches Poll only adds to the anticipation.
On a new episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory.com’s Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil break down Oregon’s No. 2 preseason ranking—the highest placement in program history in the Coaches Poll. The Ducks sit near the top of the national landscape as Dan Lanning prepares for his fifth season in Eugene and another run at the College Football Playoff.
Prehm and Skopil discuss what the ranking says about the current state of the program, the pressure that comes with being viewed as a national championship contender and the biggest questions Oregon must answer before the season begins.
The podcast also features observations and news from Oregon’s annual media day on August 3 inside Autzen Stadium. DuckTerritory spoke with 35 players, along with Lanning, to gather insight into the Ducks’ roster, leadership, offseason development and mindset entering fall camp.
From veteran returners to new faces expected to make an impact, the guys share some of the most notable takeaways from a busy afternoon in Eugene and preview the storylines that will shape Oregon’s preseason.

On this episode, DuckTerritory's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil send off contributor John Evans. Evans graduated from UO in the spring and is now covering Florida State for 247Sports. Evans makes his final Autzen Audibles appearance and looks back at favorite moments from his time covering the Ducks. Then the trio take a look at the Big Ten preseason poll. They discuss Oregon's placement as the predicted No. 2 team in the league, as well as what they make of the Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year voting.

On this episode of the Autzen Audibles podcast, Oregon edge coach Kamran Araghi joins the show. Araghi was promoted to a full-time assistant role this offseason, but coaching the team's OLBs is nothing new. He explains how his responsibilities have changed and how the annual Oregon coast trip began before diving into break downs of every scholarship player in his room.
