The Mountain West announced the updated 2026 football schedule grid Tuesday, which features Nevada making a visit to Fargo to take on the conference's newest member, North Dakota State.
The meeting with the Bison replaces the Wolf Pack's originally scheduled road game at Wyoming. The other home and away assignments for the Wolf Pack remain unchanged from the original announcement in December. Nevada will still host Air Force, Hawai'i, New Mexico, and San José State, and will still play on the road at NIU, UTEP, and UNLV.
The Pack's trip to Fargo will mark its first all-time meeting against North Dakota State.
Dates for the 2026 Mountain West contests will be announced later.
Hawai'i and New Mexico highlight three 2025 bowl teams along with the defending FCS champion coming to Reno next fall. Last season's New Orleans Bowl champion, Western Kentucky, visits for the Pack's season opener on Saturday, September 5, with 2025 FCS National Champion Montana State coming to Mackay Stadium the following Saturday, September 12.
