“Beat OU” Shirt Competition

Student Org Banner Competition

Participate in Texas Fight Rally and your student organization could win a cash prize! All you have to do is show us your Longhorn spirit!

The $1,000 prize will go to the best overall organization and a $250 prize will be awarded to both the best Greek/Spirit org and the best Non-Greek/Spirit organization. To win, orgs will be scored and ranked based on the following:

Incorporation of the parade theme in your organization’s banner and the execution and creativity of banner decoration. Banner must include the name of the student organization.
Demonstration of school spirit
Participation — Bring as many of your organization’s members as possible!

The winners of the competition will be announced in front of the Tower during Texas Fight Rally! The 2024 Texas Fight Parade theme is "Boots & BEVO!" Inspired by our favorite mascot and Texans favorite footwear, student organizations participating in the parade must creatively reflect this theme. That may mean adding some horns to your banner, wearing coordinating boots, or some wacky combination of the two! Have fun, and be creative! The more unique the better.

Student Org Supplies Pick-Up

Oct. 2, 1–2 p.m.
