Michigan State and Oregon are changing the date of their 2014 football game, moving it ahead by one week.

It's widely expected to be a Top 10 clash when the Spartans and Ducks meet in Eugene for the game now scheduled for Sept. 6.

A press release from Oregon said the date of the game “has been moved ahead one week earlier than was previously announced to accommodate a national television broadcast as well as insure the game would not be a night game.”

The game at Autzen Stadium originally had been scheduled for Sept. 13.

Moving the game up a week means the Spartans will no longer be coming off a bye week when they travel West.

Oregon remains scheduled to play at Michigan State in 2015.

Here’s a look at the revised Michigan State football schedule for 2014. It includes flipping the previous dates of games against Eastern Michigan and Wyoming:

Aug. 30 JACKSONVILLE STATE

Sept. 6 at Oregon

Sept. 20 EASTERN MICHIGAN

Sept. 27 WYOMING (HOMECOMING)

Oct. 4 NEBRASKA

Oct. 11 at Purdue

Oct. 18 at Indiana

Oct. 25 MICHIGAN

Nov. 8 OHIO STATE

Nov. 15 at Maryland

Nov. 22 RUTGERS

Nov. 29 at Penn State
