Michigan State Football Faces the Oregon Ducks in Week Six
New head coach Jonathan Smith stepped into a hero role at Michigan State to try and revive a dying program. After multiple losing seasons, hopes are not very high for the Spartans, but with Jonathan Smith leading the cavalry, hopefully, they can turn things around. The Big Ten conference is about to get a lot stronger.
One of the teams entering the Big Ten conference next season is the Oregon Ducks. The Ducks have produced two quarterbacks who were taken in the top 12 picks in recent years, with Justin Herbert being drafted by the Chargers in 2022 at pick six and Bo Nix getting drafted just a few days ago by the Denver Broncos.
Oregon had eight players get selected in this years draft including a top 12 pick which will definitely set them back a little bit for the following seasons but they certainly have a knack for recruiting and producing talent. Oregon was ranked seventh in both the AP top 15 and coaches poll concluding the 2023-24 season and are now switching up conferences so they have a lot of preparation to do.
Michigan State will face off against Oregon in week six of the 2024 season following a matchup against Ohio State. The Spartans have a rigid middle part of the year, but hopefully, having coaches and players with experience in the Pac-12 and playing against Oregon can help them a little bit. Michigan State has a real shot at redemption if they can beat a proven team and can hold their own in the midseason.
Jonathan Smith, armed with his staff coaches and players and a knack for inspiring leadership, holds the key to Michigan State’s resurgence. His experience as a player and a coach grants him insight into the game’s strategy. He can rally the team toward excellence by instilling a discipline, teamwork, and determination culture. Taking down his old rival school would signify a triumph on the field and a symbolic turning point in Michigan State’s journey back to glory. Smith’s vision and the team’s unwavering dedication promise a promising revival for the Spartans.

Woman hiker dies after falling from trail in Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge, officials say
A young woman died after falling off a cliff while hiking in Oregon’s Columbia River Gorge, officials said Monday.
The woman was hiking with friends near Horsetail Falls, about 35 miles (56.3 kilometers) east of Portland, on Sunday. After separating from the group and going off trail, she fell an estimated 50 to 60 feet (15.2 to 18.3 meters), the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office said in an emailed statement.

Cordero claims debut Oregon victory – DirtFish
And the historic aspect?
“I won a rally in México, Canada and now America,” said the three-time NACAM champion. “I think I’m the first person to do that. This has been a great event: fantastic people, such a nice ambiance and some really cool, fast stages – I will be back next year.”
Having started the day trailing Javi Olivares, Albert got by the Fiesta on Sunday’s second test, Shadowbuck. Regularly fastest of the crews still in the overall fight, Albert set his sights on P1. While he nibbled at the Rally2 car ahead, any hopes of taking chunks of time were spoiled by a busy afternoon.
“You name it, it got thrown at us this afternoon,” Albert told DirtFish. “I’ve got to thank the crew on the car, they’ve busted their a***s all day long. We got two punctures, a broken control arm and a collapsing cooling duct. The control arm was interesting: every time we braked the car pulled off the road. The only way to slow down was with the handbrake.
“In a straight line, it was OK, so we said to each other, “What do we do? Should we just gun it? Yeah, let’s gun it.” We just slowed down early for the corners and by some magical physics the wheel stayed on.
