BOULDER —On Sunday, the University of Colorado was invited to the Valero Alamo Bowl to play former Big 12 Conference rival, the University of Texas in the 28th annual game in San Antonio on Thursday, Dec. 29, the CU's first bowl appearance since playing in the same game in 2016.
The game will be televised by ESPN with a kickoff set for shortly after 7 p.m. MST. Could the third time be the charm for the Buffs? It will be CU's third appearance in the game, as the Buffaloes lost in overtime to Wisconsin in 2002 (31-28) and to Oklahoma State in 2016 (38-8).
