About Texas Bowl
The Texas Bowl is currently between seasons. The most recent game took place on December 27, 2025, and no scheduled return date has been announced. The event is held annually in Houston, Texas, and airs on ESPN. Fans can expect the next season to begin sometime in late December 2026 or early 2027, but an exact date has not been confirmed.
The Texas Bowl is a post-season NCAA-sanctioned college football game that features teams from the Division I FBS. It was first played in 2006, replacing the Houston Bowl, and has since become a regular fixture in the college football postseason. The game showcases college teams competing in a single bowl event, with the location and participating teams varying each year.
The broadcast team includes Roy Philpott and Tom Hart as play-by-play commentators, with analysts Jordan Rodgers, Roddy Jones, and Sam Acho providing insights. The coverage typically lasts around 206 minutes.
