3 COACHING SUCCESS NCAA Division I-A head coaching records since 1990 By victories 1. Bobby Bowden, Florida State MACK BROWN, TEXAS/UNC By winning percentage (min. 100 victories) 1. Bobby Bowden, Florida State MACK BROWN, TEXAS/UNC TEXAS OPENS SEASON AT NO. 2 IN BOTH POLLS: Texas was ranked second in both The Associated Press and USA Today Coaches preseason polls. UT has opened the season in The AP Top Five in four of the last five years. It is the ninth time in the last 10 years Texas has been ranked in The AP Preseason Top 10. This is also the fourth time in the last five years that the Longhorns have opened the season in the USA Today Coaches Preseason Top Five. The coaches have ranked Texas in the preseason Top 10 for 10 consecutive seasons, a UT best. The Horns enter the season with a No. 2 ranking in The AP poll for the fourth time (2005, 1970 and 62) and for the fifth time in the coaches poll (2006, 05, 02 and 1983). NON-CONFERENCE STREAKS: With a victory at Wyoming, Texas has won 15 straight non-conference games, which is tied for the second-longest nonconference winning streak in the nation. The streak is tied for the longest in UT history with a 15-game streak from UT also had a streak of 11 straight non-conference victories from and a 10-game streak from Texas is also currently on a school-record non-conference road winning streak of 10, which bettered the previous mark of seven from TEXAS RIDING A NATIONAL- LEADING STREAK OF EIGHT CON- SECUTIVE 10-WIN SEASONS: Texas has posted at least 10 wins in each of the last eight seasons, becoming just the third team in college football history to win at least 10 games in eight straight seasons. The Horns streak is tied for second all-time with Miami ( ), trailing Florida State s streak of 14 consecutive seasons. The current streak also is the longest active mark in the nation. Overall, Texas 117 victories over the last 12 years are the most in the nation. The Horns also have won more Big 12 games (72) than any other team in the conference during that time. In addition, the Horns set a school record last season by winning a bowl game for the fifth straight year after defeating No. 10 Ohio State in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl. Texas is one of only two schools nationally that has won five consecutive bowl games. The Fiesta Bowl win marked UT s seventh bowl victory in the last eight years, including three BCS triumphs and a BCS Championship Game victory. Mack Brown s eight bowl victories at UT are tied with Darrell Royal. In fact, UT s eight bowl victories over the last 11 seasons under Brown equals the amount Texas won in the 30 years prior to Brown s arrival. SEVEN HORNS ON PRESEASON WATCH LISTS: Texas has seven players listed on preseason national award watch lists in C Chris Hall, DE/LB Sergio Kindle, QB Colt McCoy, LB Roddrick Muckelroy, WR Jordan Shipley, S Earl Thomas and OT Adam Ulatoski.

BOWL ROLL: Texas played in a bowl game for a UT-record 11th straight season in 2008, bettering the previous mark of nine-straight from The Horns have won seven of their last eight bowls and have an 8-3 record under Mack Brown. In the 11 years prior to Brown s arrival, FIVE STRAIGHT BOWL WINS Texas is one of just two teams nationally that has won five consecutive bowl games over the last five seasons. ( ) TEXAS Fiesta Bowl (2008)* Holiday Bowl (2007) Alamo Bowl (2006) Rose Bowl (2005)* Rose Bowl (2004)* Utah Sugar Bowl (2008)* Pointsettia Bowl (2007) Armed Forces Bowl (2006) Emerald Bowl (2005) Fiesta Bowl (2004)* * BCS Bowl Texas went to five bowls and was 2-3. Brown is the first UT coach since Darrell Royal, who was in bowl games, to post a.500 or better record. With a victory over No. 10 Ohio State in the Tostitos Fiesta Bowl, Texas has won bowl games in five consecutive years for the first time in school history ( ). They are one of only two schools nationally to accomplish that feat. The Horns did win five straight previously ( , 66, 68-69), but the streak was interrupted by seasons that did not result in a bowl. Brown s personal string, including time at North Carolina, goes back even further. He has directed his teams to 17 straight bowls, which is the second-longest active streak in the nation. NO. 2 ALL-TIME: In 2008, Texas moved ahead of Notre Dame for second place on the NCAA all-time victory list. At 834 victories, Texas trails only Michigan in all-time wins. With the Longhorns in second place on that list, it marks the first time since 1932 that Michigan and Notre Dame do not occupy the one-two spots in all-time wins. Since Mack Brown arrived in 1998, Texas has posted a record and moved ahead of Alabama, Notre Dame and Nebraska on the all-time victory chart. TWELFTH YEAR UNDER MACK BROWN: With Mack Brown in his 12th season at Texas, he is just the fourth coach in the 116 years of Texas football to coach the Longhorns for at least a decade and just the second UT coach to win 100 games while at Texas. Darrell Royal, who won 167 games, has the longest tenure at 20 years, while D.X. Bible and Fred Akers each coached in Austin for 10 seasons.

In addition, Brown has led the Horns to a (.857) mark over the last nine seasons, which is the nation s second-best record over that timespan, and includes five 11-win seasons (2001, 02, 04, 05 and 08). The 11-win seasons are third-best to UT s 13-win campaign in 2005 and its 12-win season in 08.

Brown is the lone coach nationally to lead his team to nine or more victories in 13 straight seasons. His 11 straight seasons at UT of nine or more victories are a school best.

Brown became just the 19th coach, who has spent at least 10 years at a NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) school, to win 200 games and the seventh-youngest coach to do so. He also is one of only four active NCAA S WINNINGEST COACHES Last 12 years 1. MACK BROWN, TEXAS/N. CAROLINA Bobby Bowden, Florida State coaches, who has spent at least five years at an FBS school, to reach the 200-victory mark. In addition, Brown is one of only 10 active coaches at FBS schools who have won 100 games at their current school (117-26/.818).

In addition, UT has finished in the Top 10 in six of the last eight seasons (2001, 02, 04, 05, 07 and 08). You have to go back to Darrell Royal s string of success in the late 1960s, when the Horns finished among the Top Five four out of five years ( ), to equal that consistency in UT history. REWRITE THE RECORD BOOK: During Mack Brown s 12-year tenure at Texas, the Horns have set 215 school records. The offense has led the way by setting 136 team, individual, game, season and career records. UT also has set 14 defensive records, 32 special teams records and 28 freshman records under Brown.
