Texas Football: Alamo Bowl has Utah on tap, for first time since 1982

There is only one meeting in the entire history of the Texas football program against the Utah Utes. That meeting between Texas and Utah came back in 1982. At that time, Texas was led by head coach Fred Akers, and Utah was led by head coach Chuck Shobart. Texas finished 9-3 in the 1982 season, capped with a loss in the Sun Bowl.
