A new era of Oregon football begins Saturday when the Ducks take the field for the first time under new head coach Dan Lanning.
Coming off the program's third straight appearance in the Pac-12 Championship Game, 11th-ranked Oregon opens the 2022 season with a premier nonconference matchup against defending national champion Georgia — for which Lanning was defensive coordinator on the way to last season's College Football Playoff title.
The Bulldogs enter this season ranked No. 3 nationally. The Ducks have faced Georgia once previously, a 27-16 victory for the Bulldogs in Oregon's 1977 season opener.
