Nevada football schedule: Jay Norvell returns to Reno on Oct. 8
The Mountain West’s 2022 football schedule was unveiled Wednesday, with Nevada facing the same eight conference opponents it played last season.
The Wolf Pack is scheduled for eight conference games to finish the season, beginning Sept. 24 at Air Force. The home or away status of those games is the reverse of the Wolf Pack’s 2021 schedule.
Highlights for Nevada in 2022 include:
An Oct. 8 game at home against Colorado State, which will mark former coach Jay Norvell’s return to Mackay Stadium.
A Nov. 26 road game at rival UNLV to finish the season. Two years ago, the teams played in the first college football game ever at Allegiant Stadium.
