Boise State's 2026 football season includes a seven-game Pac-12 slate and a Week 13 flex schedule allowing matchup adjustments for playoff and TV considerations.

- The 2026 format positions the league to pursue an automatic Group of Six playoff bid, with the season ending in a home-and-home 'flex' weekend among eight schools, Pac-12 Commissioner Teresa Gould said.
