We finally have a kickoff time, Duck fans. Thursday, ESPN announced one of the most anticipated non-conference games of the year will kick-off in prime time for the East Coast. These are the teams which have won the past two Rose Bowl games.
September 12th, the Oregon Ducks will head to East Lansing, Mich., for the highly anticipated rematch against the Michigan State Spartans. The game will kick off at 5 pm PDT and be broadcast on either ABC, ESPN or ESPN2.
Will Sparty bring the noise on prime time in East Lansing?
Assuming ESPN keeps their top broadcast team in place, the game will be called by Kirk Herbstreit, Chris Fowler and Heather Cox. Last year, the broadcast teams were announced in late July.
So far, this is the only Duck game to have a kick-off time set. Last year, a bulk of Oregon’s kickoff times
were announced on May 29th, so more slots could be coming soon.
Last season, the Ducks hosted the Big-Ten power Spartans,
winning 46-27 in Eugene.
Wanna get away? Current flights from Portland to Lansing the weekend of September 12th are listed at
$465 on Expedia. Stubhub has
tickets ranging from $161 to $1025 per ticket.
As you kick off your weekend, enjoy highlights of last year game:

During the off-season the FishDuck.com publishing schedule will consist of articles on Mondays and Tuesdays. Do keep checking as new articles could be published during the week when a writer has something to say.
In mid-August of 2024, we will go back to the seven-days-a-week of articles during the football season as we did in the football season of 2023.
The Our Beloved Ducks Forum (OBD) is where we we discuss the article above and many more topics, as it is so much easier in a message board format over there. At the free OBD forum we will be posting Oregon Sports article links, the daily Press Releases from the Athletic Department and the news coming out every day.
Our 33 rules at the free OBD Forum can be summarized to this: 1) be polite and respectful, 2) do not tell anyone what to think, feel or write, and 3) no reference of any kind to politics. Easy-peasy!
OBD Forum members….we got your back. No Trolls Allowed!
