500 Games At DKR — Seating more than 100,000 fans and home to one of the nation’s all-time winningest football programs, Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium is one of the nation’s most iconic and revered facilities. With the vision of legendary UT Athletics Director L. Theo Bellmont and the help of a group of student leaders on campus, the board of regents approved the stadium in 1923 and the project began in January 1924. Completed in the fall of 1924 with $275,000 raised by students and alumni, the stadium’s initial capacity was 27,000 and it was dedicated to the Texans who fought and those who lost their lives in World War I. Saturday’s matchup with Iowa State will mark Texas’ 500th game inside the stadium.

Duvernay Closing In On 1,000 — Following Saturday’s game at Texas Tech, Devin Duvernay now has 60 receptions for 939 yards and seven touchdowns in his career. He is 61 yards shy of 1,000 for his career.
