UNLV Rebels Football Announce Start Times and Promotions for Home Games

The UNLV Rebels football team has set a time for their Week 0 season opener against the Idaho State Bengals. The game will take place at 1:00 PM local time on August 23, at the Rebels' home field of Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The game was originally set to take place on September 13 at the same venue, but the Rebels had to move the game due to a scheduling conflict with the Canelo Alvarez vs Terence Crawford championship boxing match, which got scheduled the same day as the football game after UNLV had already set their schedule. Nevertheless, knowing what a big event the boxing match was for the city, the Rebels ultimately decided to move their game to accommodate the fight.

Along with the opener, the Rebels also announced that their homecoming game will take place on October 11 at 12:30 local time. The Rebels will be hosting the Air Force Falcons as their homecoming opponent.
