<Li> Texans: 1 win </Li> <P> The Texas Governor's Cup is the trophy awarded to the winner of the football game between the two National Football League (NFL) teams in Texas, currently the Dallas Cowboys and the Houston Texans . Prior to the Texans' inaugural season in 2002 the Cowboys' opponent was the Houston Oilers (now Tennessee Titans). In 1991, after 13 straight games at the Cowboys' Texas Stadium, the Cowboys and Oilers went to a home - and - away format for the preseason and this format more or less continues to this day for the games between the Cowboys and Texans . </P> <P> Since the very first meeting between the Cowboys and Texans in 2002 the two teams have met in the regular season every fourth year and meet relatively often (by NFL standards) in the preseason; from 2002 until 2008 and again since 2013, the Cowboys and Texans have been scheduled to play each other in the preseason whenever they are not scheduled to meet in the regular season . In 2010, the teams played both a pre-season and regular season game while in 2009, 2011 and 2012 they did not meet at all . The 2017 preseason game, scheduled to be played in Houston, was cancelled due to Hurricane Harvey . </P> <P> In 1965, the American Football League (AFL)'s Houston Oilers and NFL's Dallas Cowboys both drafted Oklahoma tackle Ralph Neely . The Oilers sued the Cowboys over Neely's services . In the settlement of the case, the Oilers received three Cowboys draft picks in addition to a cash settlement . The Cowboys also agreed to play five preseason games, three in Houston, against the Oilers . Thus began the Governor's Cup series, a Texas tradition created by franchise free agency . </P>
