The Texas football program has a storied history.
While success hasn’t necessarily translated onto the field as of recently, there were many dominant seasons that took place on the Forty Acres.

Mack Brown later brought the program back to its former glory throughout his tenure from 1998-2013 and won one national title and three BCS Bowl games.
