(b)If The University of Texas at Austin or Texas A&M University refuses to play the football game required by Subsection (a) in a year, the university may not award to any student for the following academic year an athletic scholarship, grant, or similar financial assistance funded with state money and conditioned on the student ’s participation on the university ’s intercollegiate football team.

Because it should be the law, dammit.

Thanks to the Other Susan for the heads up.
