Who "owns" the state in terms of what? UTex isn't "the" state university--we have two flagship systems (established by the state of Texas).
If you're talking about fandom in Texas, you're basically going to find two equally balanced groups on Thanksgiving: Aggies & Longhorns ... with Ags tending to be the more "George Bush Presidential Library" types, and horns being the "LBJ Presidential Library, gender neutral restrooms on campus" types. Regardless of how the sports teams are playing, half of the state will prob always be owned by A&M, and half will be owned by UTex.
