    What improvements do we expect in week 2? | Monday Mailbag

    The Oregon Ducks are 1-0, but Saturday's 34-27 victory over Boise State left plenty for Duck fans to discuss. On this edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, DuckTerritory.com's Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil open up the mailbag and answer subscriber questions following Oregon's season-opening victory inside Autzen Stadium. Oregon entered the year ranked No. 2 nationally and carrying legitimate national championship expectations, but Boise State provided an immediate challenge. The Broncos grabbed multiple leads, took advantage of Oregon mistakes and remained within striking distance deep into the fourth quarter before the Ducks ultimately found a way to finish off the win. Matt and Erik examine what should be viewed as legitimate concerns coming out of Week 1 and what could simply be attributed to the usual issues that come with a season opener. The discussion includes Oregon's offensive performance, Dante Moore's impressive afternoon at quarterback, the Ducks' ability to create explosive plays and some of the inconsistencies that prevented the offense from completely taking control of the game. They also dive into Oregon's defensive performance, the impact of penalties and other mental mistakes, and what the Ducks need to clean up moving forward. With Oregon now turning its attention toward its first road game of the season at Oklahoma State, Matt and Erik also discuss what Saturday's performance might tell us about this team's ceiling and which areas need to improve quickly. All that and more in the latest Autzen Audibles Mailbag Podcast. (2:22) - Can the Boise game be a blessing in disguise? (9:46) - Where would Boise rank in the Big Ten Power Rankings? (13:54) - What areas are you most concerned with? (27:20) - Is it surprising Tommy Tofi didn't play? (34:46) - Thoughts on the 5-2-4 Defense?

    Boise State insider previews Saturday’s matchup with Oregon

    Oregon opens the 2026 season Saturday afternoon against a familiar opponent in Boise State, and the latest edition of the Autzen Audibles Podcast goes Behind Enemy Lines to get Duck fans caught up on everything surrounding the Broncos. Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil are joined by Bronco Nation News publisher B.J. Rains to discuss where Boise State stands entering the new season and what Oregon should expect when the Broncos arrive at Autzen Stadium. The conversation begins with the bigger picture surrounding Boise State, including how the program’s move to the Pac-12 has impacted excitement, perception and expectations around the school. Rains also weighs in on whether the conference change could ultimately provide Boise State with a cleaner path toward the College Football Playoff. On the field, the discussion turns to veteran quarterback Maddox Madsen, who returns as a multi-year starter after also facing Oregon during the 2024 season. Rains explains the confidence surrounding Madsen and the role he is expected to have within Boise State’s offense. The podcast also examines the Broncos’ long tradition of standout running backs and where Dylan Riley and Sire Gaines could fit into this year’s offense. Defensively, Rains identifies potential game-changing players, discusses Mana Tuioti’s expected role and breaks down where Boise State appears strongest — and where questions remain. Finally, the group discusses what needs to go right on both sides of the ball for Boise State to have a legitimate chance of pulling off an upset in Eugene.

    Breaking down the latest buzz around every Oregon defensive position

    Oregon’s fall camp is essentially complete, and the Ducks are preparing to shift their attention toward game-week preparation for their 2026 season opener against Boise State. On the latest episode of the Autzen Audibles Podcast, Matt Prehm and Erik Skopil go position-by-position through Oregon’s defense to discuss the latest buzz, storylines and information coming out of fall camp. Like our offensive breakdown, this isn’t a projected depth chart or an attempt to predict exactly who will take the field for Oregon’s first defensive snap of the season. Instead, Prehm and Skopil focus on what they’ve heard throughout August, what has stood out during conversations with Oregon’s coaches and players, and where each position appears to stand as the Ducks leave camp. The discussion begins along Oregon’s defensive front, where the Ducks have spent the offseason developing a deep and versatile collection of defensive linemen and edge defenders. From there, the podcast examines a linebacker room featuring a mix of experience and emerging options before turning to a secondary with competition and versatility throughout the cornerback, safety and Star positions. Which defensive players generated the most buzz during fall camp? Which position groups appear to have taken significant steps forward? Where could Oregon have difficult decisions to make because of its depth? And what questions still need to be answered once the Ducks begin playing games? Prehm and Skopil break down everything they know and have heard about Oregon’s defense as fall camp comes to an end and the Ducks prepare to turn their full attention toward Boise State and the start of the 2026 season. (2:00) - Why this defense has the hype it is getting (4:25) - Oregon's Defensive Line Room (19:13) - Oregon's Linebacker Room (32:36) - Oregon's Secondary Room
