The 2019 contest will be the first-ever meeting between North Texas and Cal on the gridiron.
North Texas and Wyoming will meet in a future series in 2023 and 2026. UNT will host Wyoming on Sept. 30, 2023 and will travel to face the Cowboys at War Memorial Stadium in Laramie on Sept. 5, 2026.

“We are excited to continue to put together a future schedule that will feature home-and-home series with quality opponents like Cal and Wyoming,” UNT Vice President/Director of Athletics Wren Baker said. “Getting quality opponents to come to Apogee Stadium has been a focus of ours and something that our fans have asked for. Following a record-setting year for attendance at Apogee Stadium, we hope home games like this will help us continue to build upon that momentum. ”
