- The Bobcats had some ball-hawking defensive backs back in the day. Lee Lundin set a school record in 1986 with nine interceptions while three other players — Mac Sauls (1965), Adrian Simpson (1983) and Don Caldwell (1969) — have eight. No player had five or more interceptions since Walter Musgrove in 2006.
- No Texas State player has returned an interception for a touchdown since linebacker Joe Bell in 2008.
- Former All-America wide receiver Da'Marcus Griggs finished six catches shy of tying for the career record in pass receptions. Johnny Parker set the mark from 1969-71 with 160. Griggs had 154.
- Not sure if anybody is ever going to touch Claude Mathis' record of 45 career rushing touchdowns. The same goes for Cameron Luke's touchdown reception mark of 17.
- Sterling Rogers forced seven fumbles in 2001 for Texas State. The last player to force five or more was Courtney Smith in 2008 with five.
