Memphis opens the Charles Huff era after adding 81 newcomers, including 61 transfers, while Dan Mullen begins Year 2 at UNLV after guiding the Rebels to a 10-4 record and a spot in the 2025 Mountain West Championship Game.

This is the first meeting between Memphis and UNLV, and both teams enter with quarterback questions still being sorted out. Memphis rebuilt the roster for Charles Huff's first season, but Dallan Hayden gives the offense one proven place to start.

College football is back on FOX, and Saturday night's Week 0 spotlight belongs to Memphis at UNLV. If Hayden keeps Memphis ahead of the chains, he can take pressure off the quarterback rotation, quiet the crowd and keep UNLV's offense on the sideline.

A steady night from Hayden would give Memphis exactly the kind of foundation it needs in Huff's debut. The Tigers and Rebels meet for the first time at Allegiant Stadium, with kickoff set for 10 p.m.

The late FOX window brings a fresh start for both teams. ET on FOX and live streaming available on FOX One.

The redshirt senior brings 1,185 career rushing yards and eight touchdowns into the opener, valuable experience while the Tigers sort through their new pieces. J'Mond Tapp followed Huff from Southern Miss after piling up 7.5 sacks and earning first-team All-Sun Belt honors in 2025.

That puts extra weight on the proven playmakers around them.
