PUEBLO, Colo. (Jan. 5, 2022) – Following the official conclusion of the NCAA Division II football season, Colorado State University Pueblo has announced its schedule for the 2022 football season. 
 
Much like in 2021, the 2022 season will feature CSU Pueblo once again facing a challenging schedule. The ThunderWolves' 2022 opponents combined for a record of 69-55 during the 2021 season while five of the foes lost three or fewer games.
 
The 2022 season kicks off with a tough match-up at Midwestern State University Texas on Sept. 3 in Wichita Falls, Texas at 5 p.m. MT. Rounding out the non-conference slate, the Pack will host Grand Valley State for the annual RED OUT game on Sept. 10 at 6 p.m. at the CSU Pueblo ThunderBowl.
 
The Rocky Mountain Athletic Conference (RMAC) season will open up on Sept. 17 at the CSU Pueblo ThunderBowl as the ThunderWolves host Western Colorado University coming off one the most successful football seasons in Mountaineers' history. 
 
Sept. 24 will feature another test for the Pack as they head up to Golden, Colo. to face a Colorado School of Mines team that is fresh off making a National Quarterfinals appearance in 2021. 
 
The ThunderWolves then travel back home for a 2 p.m. match-up against Fort Lewis College on Oct. 1 at the CSU Pueblo ThunderBowl. CSU Pueblo defeated Fort Lewis 73-0 in 2021 to mark the most lopsided victory in Pack football history.
 
On Oct. 8, CSU Pueblo hits the road again, this time bound for Alamosa, Colo. where they will face Adams State University. The Pack took down Adams State 35-28 in 2021 in a hard-fought Homecoming match-up.
 
The Pack head back home looking for revenge on Oct. 15 as the ThunderWolves face New Mexico Highlands University at 2 p.m. at the CSU Pueblo ThunderBowl. The Pack fell to the Cowboys this past season for the first time since 1984.
 
CSU Pueblo gets to stay home for the next week and host Chadron State College on Oct. 22 at 2 p.m. The Pack are 12-1 against the Eagles since the 2008 restart of the football program.
 
For the final road match-up of the season on Oct. 29, the Pack head into Grand Junction, Colo. to renew the rivalry with Colorado Mesa University. The ThunderWolves pulled out a double-overtime victory in the 2021 match-up that handed one of the two season losses for the Mavericks.  
 
In the home finale on Nov. 5, the Pack host South Dakota Mines at the CSU Pueblo ThunderBowl at 2 p.m. to celebrate Senior Day. Finally, the ThunderWolves will travel out to Spearfish, S.D. for the final regular season showdown as the Pack faces Black Hills State on Nov. 12.
 
The ThunderWolves finished the 2021 season at 6-5 overall and 6-3 in the conference play. The Pack had one of the stronger schedules in the nation that featured four opponents ranked in the top-15 and one more receiving votes at the time of competition. 
 
Times for the 2022 schedule are subject to change and four games do not have a start time as of Jan. 6. Updates and full coverage of CSU Pueblo football are available at www.gothunderwolves.com.
