The Lone Star Showdown is the traditional rivalry for all varsity men's and women's athletics competitions between the University of Texas at Austin and Texas A&M University. The name comes from Lone Star State, which is the nickname of the state of Texas. [1] The "Lone Star Showdown" moniker was trademarked in 1996. [2]

The schools are rivals in most major sports, and both universities boast large living alumni bases (over 665,000), along with a significant following from supporters throughout the state and nation.

Being the two oldest public universities in the State of Texas, the rivalry has a history dating back over a century, with the first competition taking place in football in 1894. Throughout the decades, the schools joined and switched conferences together, maintaining the rivalry through the Texas Intercollegiate Athletic Association (TIAA), Southwest Conference (SWC), and Big 12 Conference.

The football portion of the Lone Star Showdown ended in 2011 when Texas A&M moved to the Southeastern Conference (SEC). [3] Texas and Texas A&M still competed regularly in other sports in non-conference play.

The State Farm Lone Star Showdown started in 2004 and was created to bring more attention to the rivalry in non-major sports. The Lone Star Showdown trophy was awarded to the winning school each year based on head-to-head matchup in each sport. The final episode of the annual competition occurred during the 2011–12 academic year.

In July 2021, Texas announced that it (along with rival Oklahoma) would join the SEC no later than the 2025-26 academic year. [4] In February 2023, the Big 12 announced that Texas and Oklahoma had negotiated a combined $100 million early termination fee in order to leave for the SEC a year early. [5] The Longhorns football team competed in the Big 12 through the 2023 season before moving to the SEC in 2024, with the football edition of the Lone Star Showdown scheduled to resume in November of that year.

The State Farm Lone Star Showdown started in 2004 and was created to bring more attention to the rivalry in non-major sports. The Lone Star Showdown trophy was awarded to the winning school each year based on head-to-head matchup in each sport. The final episode of the annual competition occurred during the 2011–12 academic year.

Point system

Points were awarded for all sports in which both schools maintained an intercollegiate team. Each sport was worth one point, which was awarded to the winner of the head-to-head matchup between the two teams. Each team received ½ point for a head-to-head matchup that ended in a tie. In baseball, the team that won the regular season three-game series was awarded one point (and in the rare event of a split caused by each team winning one of the first two games, and the third game being called on account of weather with the game tied or not played, each team would receive ½ point). In sports where the teams met twice during the season — softball, volleyball, and men's and women’s basketball — each contest was worth ½ point.

If the universities did not compete in head-to-head regular season competition, the team that placed higher at the Big 12 Conference Championship would earn the point, and a tie in Big 12 Conference Championship competition would result in the point being split between the two schools. In the sport of track and field, multi-school meets were not counted as head-to-head competition.

There were a total of 19 possible points in each of the annual competitions, with 10 points needed to win. When the competition ended in a 9½ to 9½ tie, the rules provided that the winner of the previous year would retain the title for the following year. [12]

Series history and standings

Previous year's winner retains title in the event of a tie, as per the tie-breaker rule.

Overall results (2004–2012)

  • Total wins: Texas 6 (63%), Texas A&M 2 (37%)
  • Total points: Texas 90.5 (60%), Texas A&M 61.5 (40%)

State Farm Scholar-Athlete

Beginning with the 2006–07 school year, State Farm began honoring a member of the home team at each Showdown event as a State Farm Scholar-Athlete for their achievements both in competition and in the classroom.

2020 Revival

In August 2020, it was announced [13] [14] that the rivalry would be revived in the name of supporting Feeding America. The event was set to take place on September 4 and coincide with the Annual College Colors Day. For each purchase of officially licensed Texas A&M or Texas merchandise, Wells Fargo would donate 100 meals to Feeding America member food banks.

The football squad used the bobcat for the first time in 1921 and went undefeated with a 7–0 season. Texas State had several officially recognized live bobcat mascots until the 1970s. In 1964, the Texas State Bobcat was given the official name of "Boko" by Beth Greenlees, a sophomore from Luling, Texas, who beat out about 100 other students in a "Name the Bobcat" contest. Her winning submission earned her a $5 prize and the honor of being the person who named the Texas State mascot. Boko has twice been named “USA National Champion” mascot. Texas State had no official fight song until 1961, when Paul Yoder was commissioned to compose "Go Bobcats." The song is the rousing "call to arms" for all Texas State athletic games and competition.
