The rivalry between UNLV and UNR runs deep, and this matchup closes out the Rebels' home slate as the two in-state programs face off for the 52nd time. Playing under the enclosed roof at Allegiant Stadium, UNLV enters with a chance at history—looking to string together a fifth straight win over the Wolf Pack, something that's only happened once before in this long-running series.

This game is part of the Silver State Series, so there's an added layer of bragging rights on the line beyond just the win-loss column. Expect the kind of energy that comes with a border battle: students and alumni from both schools mixing in the stands, a physical brand of football, and the crowd noise that only builds when two Nevada teams collide on a stage as big as Allegiant Stadium.
