Texas Longhorns Tickets: Historical Overview

Since beginning play in 1902, the Texas Longhorns have been a big winner on the gridiron. The Alabama Crimson Tide is the only team to appear in more bowl games than Texas. Over the years, the Longhorns have come away with 29 conference championships.

While there is a lot more attention paid to the school's football squad, the basketball program has also fared quite well. Texas has reached the NCAA tournament 29 times. In March Madness, the Longhorns have made three appearances (1943, 47 and 2003) in the Final Four.

Championship Seasons

The Texas Longhorns have captured four national championships in football. Under legendary head coach Darrell K Royal (1957-76), Texas won three national titles during an eight-year stretch (1963-70).

In 1963, the Longhorns recorded a perfect 11-0 campaign to win the first national championship for the school. Six years later, the Longhorns were on top of the college football world again after another 11-0 mark.  In one of the most famous games in the history of college football, top-ranked Texas edged past #2 Arkansas late in the regular season to solidify its status as the best team in the nation. Texas was able to register a repeat as the national champion in the following year as well.

In 2005, current head coach Mack Brown led Texas to another championship. In that year's BCS title game, star quarterback Vince Young led a dramatic rally late in the game to defeat USC.

On the hardwood, the Longhorns have won 27 conference championships (25-regular season, 2-tournament).
