Fouts Field
Fouts Field was a stadium at the University of North Texas, located in Denton, Texas. Its primary use from its opening in 1952 until 2010 was as the home field for North Texas Mean Green football. Over its 59-year history, Fouts Field was the college home of players such as Joe Greene, Abner Haynes, and Steve Ramsey.

North Texas had spent its first 40 seasons at Eagle Field, which seated just 2,500 spectators on steel bleachers in an open area near the center of campus called Recreation Park, where the school's athletic events were held. As the popularity of football quickly outgrew the limited number of fans Eagle Field could hold, former football coach and Athletic Director Theron J. Fouts began pushing for a new master plan for recreational facilities on campus, including a new 20,000-seat football stadium with a track in the southwest corner of the unive ...

They previously competed together in Conference USA from 2005–12 and the Missouri Valley Conference from 1951–59, as well as playing regularly while Houston was independent (1960–75).

Rice Stadium (Rice University)
Rice Stadium is an American football stadium located on the Rice University campus in Houston, Texas. It has been the home of the Rice Owls football team since its completion in 1950, and hosted John F. Kennedy's "We choose to go to the Moon" speech in 1962 and Super Bowl VIII in early 1974. Architecturally, Rice Stadium is an example of modern architecture, with simple lines and an unadorned, functional design. The lower seating bowl is located below the surrounding ground level. Built solely for football, the stadium has excellent sightlines from almost every seat. To achieve this, the running track was eliminated so that spectators were closer to the action and each side of the upper decks was brought in at a concave angle to provide better sightlines. It is still recognized in many circles as the best stadium in Texas for watching a football game. Entrances and aisles were strategically placed so that the entire stadium could be emptied of spectators in nine minutes. In 2 ...
