Lone Star Showdown

The Lone Star Showdown was the traditional rivalry for all varsity men's and women's athletics competitions between the Texas A&M University and the University of Texas at Austin. The name comes from "Lone Star State", which is the nickname of the state of Texas. The "Lone Star Showdown" moniker was trademarked in 1996.
Being the two oldest public universities in the State of Texas, the two schools are rivals in most major sports (primarily football). Both universities boast large living alumni bases (over 665,000) and a significant following from supporters throughout the state and nation. 
The football portion of the Lone Star Showdown ended in 2011 when Texas A&M moved to the Southeastern Conference. Texas and Texas A&M still compete regular in other sports besides football 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.

State Farm Lone Star Showdown.
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.
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 that the rivalry would be revived in the name of supporting Feeding America. The event was set to take place on September 4th 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.
