Updated conference opponents for the University of Â鶹´«Ã½ at Mānoa team¡¯s 2026 season were announced February 24 by the Mountain West. The new matchups come after the addition of North Dakota State to the league earlier this month.
The Rainbow Warriors will host the Bison at Clarence T.C. Ching Athletics Complex in addition to three teams previously scheduled to make the trip to Honolulu in New Mexico, San Jose State and UNLV. UH Mānoa will travel to Nevada, Northern Illinois (NIU), UTEP and Wyoming.
UH Mānoa will take on all three new members of the Mountain West—Northern Illinois, North Dakota State and UTEP in 2026.

UH Mānoa¡¯s 12-game schedule includes six home games and six road games. The Rainbow Warriors¡¯ previously announced non-conference slate includes home games against New Mexico State (September 12), and Massachusetts (November 28) and road games at Stanford (August 29) and Arizona State (September 19).
