Yes, there is a lesser degree of rivalry of the kind that you mentioned between LSU and Tulane in TX -- between UT (Austin) and TAMU (College Station). Rick Perry is the FIRST TAMU graduate to be governor. John Sharp is also a TAMU alumnus. I don't know about Dewhurst. In a close election, football rivalries could matter to 2,000 voters.

I think most of the LSU grads live in Houston. My friend told me the largest Alumnus club is in Houston, and we love all the LA transplants because they bring a real flavor to The Bayou City.
