Nevada Football

Nevada's 2024 football schedule has been set, as the Mountain West announced the conference's fall slate Thursday.

While opponents and their corresponding game weeks are set, final dates, kick times, and broadcast information for the Wolf Pack's 2024 slate will be announced later.

The new era of Nevada Football launches in 2024 as head coach Jeff Choate embarks on his first campaign at the Wolf Pack helm. Choate spent the past three seasons (2021-23) as co-defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach at Texas, helping lead the Longhorns to a Big XII title and College Football Playoff appearance in 2023.

Choate's first season at the Wolf Pack helm will feature seven home contests, with five taking place before November. Ten of Nevada's 13 opponents, including five of the seven visiting Mackay Stadium, played in a bowl game in 2023.

Following five-straight non-conference games to open the campaign, Nevada will have the first of its two byes in Week 5 (Saturday, Sept. 28).

The Pack opens Mountain West play in Week 6 (Oct. 5) at San José State, before returning to Reno for two in a row at Mackay Stadium, hosting Oregon State (Oct. 12) and Fresno State (Oct. 19). A trip to Honolulu is on the docket for Nevada Day Weekend, as the Pack faces Hawai'i in Week 9 (Oct. 26).

November opens up at home as Nevada hosts Colorado State Nov. 2, followed by a trip to Boise State in Week 11 (Nov. 9), as the Pack seeks its second win in a row over the Broncos on the blue turf of Albertson's Stadium.

Nevada's second bye of the season comes in Week 12 (Nov. 16), leading right into the final two games of the regular season. The Pack hosts Air Force for Senior Day in Week 13 (Nov. 23) before heading south for the chance to wrest the Fremont Cannon from arch-rival UNLV in Week 14 (Nov. 30).

The Wolf Pack's first five weeks of non-conference play feature already-announced home contests against first-year ACC member SMU (Aug. 24), Georgia Southern (Sept. 7), and Eastern Washington (Sept. 21), along with trips to Troy (Aug. 31) and Minnesota (Sept. 14).

Season ticket prices for 2024 begin for as low as $99 for adults and $60 for children 12 and under. Family 4-PACK's are also available and include four General Admission season tickets and complimentary parking for only $400—a total savings of $200. Season Ticket Members can renew their tickets online by visiting MyNevadaTickets.com or by calling (775) 348-PACK.
