College football: Nevada takes on Texas State in coach Ken Wilson's home debut

Nevada's first-year head coach Ken Wilson won his debut last week; next the Wolf Pack football team plays its home opener on new turf and with new helmet logos.

Nevada (1-0) hosts Texas State (0-0) at 2:30 p.m. Saturday at Mackay Stadium.

Wilson is the first head coach to win his Pack head coaching debut since Chris Ault in 1976. He made at least one change that should be immediately noticeable. The Wolf Pack will return to the east sideline, looking into the sun.

When Wilson was a longtime assistant under Ault, the Wolf Pack used the east side, but moved to the west sideline after Ault retired in Dec.
