Kickoff time set for Texas-Notre Dame football game

In a meeting of two of college football's all-time victory leaders, the Longhorns (No. 3/886 wins) and Fighting Irish (No. 2/892 wins) have combined to win over 72 percent of their games in their histories and have met in football 11 times dating back to 1913 with the Fighting Irish holding a 9-2 advantage. The last meeting in Austin pitted No. 6 Texas vs. No. 9 Notre Dame in 1996. That game came down to the wire as the Fighting Irish kicked a 39-yard field goal as time expired in a 27-24 victory. Charlie Strong was a Notre Dame assistant coach at the time.
