Texas and Texas A&M leadership spoke about the renewed Lone Star Showdown in Houston Thursday.
Texas AD Chris Del Conte and Texas A&M AD Trev Alberts held an event in Houston Thursday to build buzz around the renewed rivalry and announce its new sponsor.
“What makes college football is rivalries. It was really sad that a Texas-Texas A&M rivalry didn’t happen for this long. We join all of you, the state of Texas, in saying how excited we are that this rivalry is back,” Texas A&M athletic director Trev Alberts said at an event in Houston Thursday. “I think that this game has a chance to be the best rivalry football game in all of college football.
The Houston-based company “provide property restoration, construction, roofing, consulting, workforce staffing, temporary workforce housing, and culinary services to public and private entities worldwide,” according to its website.Both athletic directors and leadership at Cotton Holdings said they believe the sponsorship is a natural fit because it can help restore the rivalry the way it does for buildings.
