How to Watch Memphis at UNLV: TV Channel, Streaming, Start Time

College football is back on FOX, and Saturday night's Week 0 spotlight belongs to Memphis at UNLV .

The Tigers and Rebels meet for the first time at Allegiant Stadium, with kickoff set for 10 p.m.

ET on FOX and live streaming available on FOX One .

The late FOX window brings a fresh start for both teams.

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.

There is no history to lean on here.

This is the first meeting between Memphis and UNLV, and both teams enter with quarterback questions still being sorted out.

That puts extra weight on the proven playmakers around them.

Memphis rebuilt the roster for Charles Huff's first season, but Dallan Hayden gives the offense one proven place to start.

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.

His work Saturday can shape the entire game.

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.

J'Mond Tapp followed Huff from Southern Miss after piling up 7.5 sacks and earning first-team All-Sun Belt honors in 2025.
