The Huskies will take on the University of North Carolina in the Wasabi Fenway Bowl in Boston on Dec. 28.
"We're excited to represent UConn at this year's Wasabi Fenway Bowl, and to have the opportunity to compete at such an iconic venue against a quality opponent like North Carolina," UConn head coach Jim Mora said in a statement.
UConn finished this season with an 8-4 record. This will be the team's first bowl appearance since the 2022 Myrtle Beach Bowl in South Carolina, where UConn lost to Marshall 28-14.
