UNLV has announced that its home football game vs. Idaho State will move from September 13 to August 23 in order for Las Vegas to host the championship boxing match between Canelo Alvarez and Terence Crawford at the Rebels' home venue, Allegiant Stadium.
The NCAA approved UNLV's waiver request, which allowed the Rebels to move their home-opener to Week Zero and in turn allowed Allegiant Stadium to host the historic megafight in September.
The two programs were originally scheduled to compete on September 13, 2025. Kickoff time is still to be determined.
