Final opponent announced!At Nevada, August 24th.
Re: Final opponent announced!Interesting. Leaves more off weeks than usual. Off before TCU, before travel to Stanford and before BC. Might really help. Hopefully Nevada agreed to a return visit to Dallas at some future date.

Re: Final opponent announced!
Agree on off weeks, and that’s the opening day of week zero with only two other games: FSU-Ga Tech in Ireland and Montana State-New Mexico. Plus Reno August weather >>> Dallas August weather.
Re: Final opponent announced!Been there a couple of times for trade shows. I think it'll probably make a really nice destination trip.

Re: Final opponent announced!Wonder how many FBS games are on that day? Hopefully will get a prime TV channel.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!
Re: Final opponent announced!
See above.
Re: Final opponent announced!
Thanks! Not sure how I missed that ![]() Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!
Re: Final opponent announced!No home games the entire month of October kind of sucks.
Re: Final opponent announced!
Kinda hard to build/maintain any momentum/enthusiasm with a growing fan base if your team vacates your stadium for a month. Hopefully, this will get tweaked for 2025.
Re: Final opponent announced!
It is pretty bizarre to have seven home games yet none in October. But I don't think the fan-base growth is threatened by any week-to-week gap. It's threatened if the team's record isn't good. Dallas will show up in November if the team is winning, and especially if they are ranked.

I love seeing this quote: “When the opportunity to add an extra home game and especially begin our ‘RenoVation 2024’ at Mackay Stadium came up, we jumped on it,” said Nevada Football head coach Jeff Choate. “Having a Power-4, ACC opponent in SMU coming to Reno this season, there is no reason to not have Mackay Stadium packed.”
