LAS VEGAS (UNLVRebels.com) – UNLV will host newly minted FBS member North Dakota State at Allegiant Stadium this coming season as the Mountain West announced the updated opponent matrix for the league's now-10 members on Tuesday.
 
UNLV will face the Bison for the first time ever as its fourth 2026 home game, replacing a previously announced visit by UTEP. The Rebels will also host UNR, Wyoming and another new member, NIU, this fall and play at Air Force, New Mexico, San José State and Hawai'i as part of conference play. Dates of games are expected to be announced by the MW in the next few weeks with times and TV partners following up later in the year.
 
Head Coach Dan Mullen returns for his second season leading the program after turning in a 10-4 record that included earning the MW regular-season top seed, a third consecutive championship game appearance and third straight bowl game trip for the Rebels.
