The Mountain West Conference matchup features San Diego State Aztecs (4-1, 1-0 MWC) visiting the Nevada Wolf Pack (1-4, 0-1 MWC). San Diego State is favored significantly, coming off a strong start to their season and a conference-opening win, while Nevada has struggled with only one win and recent offensive challenges, including experimenting with a wide receiver at quarterback due to injuries[1][2].
Key Factors to Consider
San Diego State boasts an 'excellent defense' and has found a promising downfield passing game, suggesting they are hitting their stride at the right time. Nevada, by contrast, is struggling both offensively and defensively, ranking near the bottom of the conference in several key metrics[1][2].
Recent head-to-head data was not specified in the available sources, but San Diego State's superior record and momentum suggest historical trends may favor them.
Nevada has significant injury concerns at quarterback, having resorted to playing a wide receiver at the position in their previous game—a clear sign of desperation and potential further instability[1].
Weather at kickoff is forecast to be clear and mild (49°F, 0% chance of rain), so conditions should not impede the favored team's strengths[1].
San Diego State is looking to bolster its conference standing and build momentum for postseason contention. Nevada, meanwhile, is searching for any positive momentum in a rebuilding year.

The Nevada Wolf Pack (1-1) host the Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders (0-2) in their first-ever meeting on September 13, 2025. Nevada enters fresh off a split start, playing at home with the advantage of Mackay Stadium. Middle Tennessee has struggled early with two losses and offensive inefficiencies, while Nevada has a moderately balanced offense and defense. The game is a Mountain West vs Conference USA non-conference matchup with Nevada as a strong favorite.
Key Factors to Consider
Nevada holds a 1-1 record showing competitive performance against their early opponents. Middle Tennessee has lost its first two games decisively, scoring only 24 combined points and struggling with just 77 rushing yards total. Middle Tennessee's offense is led by quarterback Nicholas Vattiato, who has completed 52.2% of passes for 301 yards with 3 touchdowns so far this season. On defense, Middle Tennessee has accumulated 14 tackles for loss but allowed heavy sacks (10) and points. Nevada's detailed stats aren't fully available but their winning status and home advantage project stronger recent performance.
This is the first-ever all-time meeting between Nevada Wolf Pack and Middle Tennessee Blue Raiders, so no direct head-to-head history exists. Middle Tennessee is scheduled to host Nevada in the return game on September 26, 2026.
No specific injury reports were found in the available data for either team. Both sides seem to be approaching the game at near full strength.
The match is held at Mackay Stadium in Reno, Nevada, giving the Wolf Pack home field advantage and likely favorable conditions. Middle Tennessee faces travel fatigue as this is an away game after back-to-back losses. Weather or other external factors were not specifically cited but typical September climate in Reno is generally favorable for football.
Nevada looks to improve to 2-1 at home and build momentum in their Mountain West schedule. Middle Tennessee is motivated to earn their first win of the season and halt a losing streak while proving their new coach Derek Mason’s improvements are taking hold in his second season.

The Nevada Wolf Pack host the Sacramento State Hornets in their 2025 home opener after both teams started the season with losses. Nevada fell 46-11 to Penn State, indicating struggles against top competition, while Sacramento State lost 3-20 against South Dakota State. The game is crucial for both teams to rebound early in their schedules.
Key Factors to Consider
Nevada showed offensive challenges against a strong Penn State defense, scoring only 11 points and allowing 46. Sacramento State's defense performed relatively well holding South Dakota State to 20 points, but their offense was limited to 3 points. Both teams are seeking improved offensive production, though Nevada’s power-five schedule may give them an edge in physicality and depth.
Recent data on head-to-head matchups between Nevada and Sacramento State is limited, but this game marks an important non-conference contest. Nevada, playing at home, is generally favored based on program strength and past Mountain West success compared to Sacramento State, which competes in the Big Sky Conference at FCS level.
No significant injury reports are publicly available prior to kickoff for either team, suggesting both squads should have their main starters available.
The game is played at Mackay Stadium in Reno, providing Nevada home-field advantage. The weather conditions in early September in Reno are typically mild and unlikely to affect play conditions.
Nevada aims to bounce back quickly from a heavy season-opening loss and prove competitiveness at home. Sacramento State seeks to upset an FBS opponent and gain momentum after a tough opening defeat, which may ignite a motivated underdog performance.

The 2025 matchup features the Penn State Nittany Lions hosting the Nevada Wolf Pack at Beaver Stadium. Penn State is a perennial powerhouse in the Big Ten, ranked highly pre-season, while Nevada enters as an underdog from the Mountain West Conference. Both teams open their seasons with this game, with Penn State favored heavily due to superior talent, depth, and home-field advantage.
Key Factors to Consider
Penn State finished the previous season strongly and returns a well-coached, balanced team with a dominant defense and multifaceted offense. Nevada struggled in recent years and ranks significantly lower in overall talent and depth, especially against Power Five conference teams.
Limited recent meetings, with Penn State having the clear advantage historically when matchups occurred. No notable competitive games recently to suggest an upset.
No major injury reports available for either team at this pre-season stage, indicating both squads should be near full strength for kickoff.
Playing at Beaver Stadium with a large home crowd and prime time broadcast on CBS/Paramount+ favors Penn State. Weather in late August is expected to be typical for Pennsylvania with minimal impact.
Penn State aims to start the season strong to build momentum for a Big Ten championship run, while Nevada looks to gain respect and prove itself against a top-tier opponent on the road.

Game Overview
The Nevada Wolf Pack hosts the San Diego State Aztecs in a crucial late-season NCAA baseball matchup. Nevada had a solid 2024 season, finishing tied for third in the Mountain West but with a slightly positive overall record (25-26). Their 2025 schedule continues to test their depth. The game is part of a home series for Nevada, offering them familiar conditions and crowd support[3][4].
Key Factors to Consider
Nevada enters this matchup with a recent history of competitiveness in the Mountain West, despite a slightly sub-.500 overall record. Exact 2025 team records are not yet updated, but Nevada is considered a solid home team. San Diego State’s current form is less clear due to limited recent data, but historically they are capable of upsets.
Previous head-to-heads are competitive, but there is no clear, recent dominance by either team. Both teams are familiar with each other and have traded wins in past meetings[5].
No major injuries or absences have been reported for either team. Both sides appear close to full strength.
Game played at Nevada’s home field may provide a slight advantage for the Wolf Pack. No significant weather disruptions expected.
With this being a late-season game, both teams are likely motivated to finish strong, but home advantage could tilt the balance toward Nevada, especially if they are vying for a higher conference finish.

The Washington State Cougars host the Nevada Wolf Pack in a three-game series starting on April 17, 2025. Washington State has a record of 14-21, while Nevada stands at 20-16. The Wolf Pack recently swept the Cougars in their last meeting but WSU looks to improve their performance at home.
