Utah, Nevada Confirm 2028 Football Matchup After Eight Decades

The Utah and Nevada football programs have scheduled a notable non-conference matchup for September 9, 2028, marking their first meeting since 1945. The game will take place at Utah's Rice-Eccles Stadium and is part of Utah's finalized 2028 nonconference slate, which also includes games against Utah Tech and Wisconsin. Historically, Nevada holds a slight edge in the series, leading 5-4-1, with their last encounter resulting in a Nevada win. Alongside this, Nevada has planned additional future games, including hosting Idaho State in 2027 and rescheduling their 2029 Ohio State game to 2030, which will be their first meeting. Utah’s 2028 schedule balances regional and Power Four matchups, while the 2025 season features updated dates and TV information, including an opener against UCLA. Both programs are preparing for significant future contests as part of their ongoing schedule developments.
