Memphis travels to Allegiant Stadium on Saturday, August 29th at 10:00 PM EDT to open the 2024 season against UNLV in a Week 0 matchup that deserves your late-night attention.
Both programs enter at 0-0, which means everything from here is possibility. That's the beauty of Week 0 — no one has lost yet, no narrative has hardened, and every snap carries the electricity of a blank slate. Allegiant Stadium, one of the most spectacular venues in all of sports, provides a fitting backdrop for two teams looking to make an immediate statement on national television.
This is the kind of game that rewards the night owls. Two programs hungry to set the tone for their seasons, playing in an NFL palace, with the entire college football world watching because there's simply nothing else on. Tune in and meet two teams before the rest of the country knows their names.
