MSU football has added two primetime games to their 2015 schedule, including the first confirmed night game at Spartan Stadium.

The Big Ten conference and TV networks announced that MSU vs. Oregon on September 12 will kickoff at 8 p.m., last season Oregon defeated the Spartans in Eugene, Oregon 46-27.

When MSU goes to Nebraska Nov. 7 that game will also kickoff at either 7 p.m. or  8 p.m.

MSU now has three confirmed primetime games, including a game at Rutgers on Oct. 10. on Big Ten Network. That kickoff time has not been announced but it will be a night game.

The Oregon and Nebraska games will be on ABC, ESPN or ESPN2.
