Longhorns Daily News: Texas projected to land in the Cheez-It Bowl versus Notre Dame

After a season defining win over the Kansas Jayhawks this past weekend, the Texas Longhorns are that much closer to bowl season, where 247Sports projects that the Longhorns will face off against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish in the Cheez-It Bowl.

From 247Sports: “You know Orlando bowl organizers would love to get this nationally-ranked matchup if possible. There’s a chance Notre Dame slides into the New Year’s Six if the Fighting Irish beat USC on the road next week, but for now, we’re projecting Marcus Freeman’s squad in Florida against the Longhorns. Texas obliterated Kansas to move to 7-4 on the season.”
