A look at Texas football’s complete bowl history and their all-time win-loss record.

For the past two seasons, Texas’ football team has been on the outside looking in on the bowl games. After finishing below .500 in both 2015 and 2016, this left them out of the postseason and arguably led to a change in head coaches (Charlie Strong fired, Tom Herman hired). Their last appearance came in 2014, where they lost to Arkansas, 31-7.

Prior to this recent lack of success, Texas had a strong bowl history that dates all the way back to the 1942 Cotton Bowl, where they beat Georgia Tech, 14-7. They would go on to be featured in a bowl game in every decade, including four national championships along the way. Their last one came in 2005, at the Rose Bowl, against USC.

The Longhorns have had a long bowl history. Who did they beat in 1952? How about in 2001? Here’s a look at every postseason matchup they have had since 1942:

Their all-time record is 27-24-2.

Texas will look to add to their bowl history in 2017, which will see them look to break their streak of being left out of the mix. Can they get a record at or above .500, though?
