A couple quick notes about some of the matchups.

To start of the season, the Matchup against Texas A&M Kingsville Javelinas will be the first time the Javelinas have made the trip to Grand Junction for Football, and the first opponent out of the Lone Star Conference the Mavericks have faced since 2019.

The Mavs will follow that up with a road trip to take on an FCS opponent, the University of San Diego Toreros. This is the first time the Mavs have played since 2013. That was a 26-0 loss to Montana State in Bozeman, Mt.

After that the Mavericks will begin play against Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference opponents with South Dakota Mines. The Orediggers defeated the Mavericks in their first RMAC game last season at 31-17.

From there the Mavs will begin RMAC play, ending their season with the same team as the 2022 season New Mexico Highlands.
