How to watch UNLV football’s season opener against Idaho State

Dan Mullen makes his debut as UNLV football coach Saturday when the Rebels host Idaho State at Allegiant Stadium.

UNLV, which received votes in both The Associated Press preseason poll and USA Today coaches’ poll, has not named a starter at quarterback. Juniors Anthony Colandrea and Alex Orji are both expected to play.

This is the earliest game in UNLV program history and was moved from Sept. 13 to accommodate the Canelo Álvarez and Terence Crawford megafight, also at Allegiant Stadium.

UNLV leads the all-time series 7-2 and is 32-14 against teams that are currently in the Big Sky Conference.

The Rebels are 7-0 against Idaho State in games played in Las Vegas with their most recent victories coming in 2022 (52–21), 2015 (80–8) and 2006 (54–10).

Idaho State is coming off a 5-7 season in which it averaged 298.4 passing yards per game.
