No. 13 Texas vs. No. 18 Michigan: Game Time, TV, Streaming Details

The No. 13 Texas Longhorns are gearing up for their third matchup against the No. 18 Michigan Wolverines in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl at Camping World Stadium in Orlando. This game holds special significance as it follows historic clashes between the two teams in the past.

In their first meeting at the 2004 Rose Bowl, Texas witnessed Vince Young’s legendary performance, setting the stage for his iconic run with the Longhorns. Last year, Texas triumphed over Michigan in a convincing victory, securing their spot in the CFP.

Although the stakes may not be as high this time around, a win in this game could be a game-changer for both teams as they prepare for the future. Texas is bracing for significant changes in their roster and coaching staff after a somewhat disappointing 2025 season. They’ll be looking to strengthen their offense and solidify their defense to adapt to a new system.

On the other side, Michigan is undergoing a transition period with the appointment of Kyle Whittingham as head coach following the departure of Sherrone Moore due to policy violations. Whittingham’s leadership will be crucial for the Wolverines as they navigate through this period of change.

As we look ahead to the Citrus Bowl, it’s important to note the key players who will be absent from Texas due to opt-outs for the NFL Draft or transfers. Despite these changes, the Longhorns remain favorites by 7.5 points on FanDuel.

With favorable weather conditions expected on game day, sunny skies and 59 degrees temperature, it’s shaping up to be an exciting showdown between the Longhorns and the Wolverines.
