Every day we’ll post a meaningful photo from the year to recap the eventful season and get fans prepped for Oregon’s matchup in the Lone Star State. Be sure to check out the rest of the Emerald’s football coverage leading up to the game.

Freshman tight end Johnny Mundt has seen a breakout season after making his starting debut against Tennessee in which he played for a career day. With the recent suspension of Pharaoh Brown, Mundt now finds himself as a primary on the depth chart for the Alamo Bowl. He has notched the most receiving yards by an Oregon tight end (121) since 2009, and made career-firsts of five catches and two touchdowns against the Vols. Expectations are high for Mundt on Monday against the Longhorns.
