FWIW, here is the Wiki's list, by state, of land-grant institutions. The list says that the two land-grant schools in Texas are Texas A&M and Prairie View A&M.
Fun fact: Iowa was the first state to accept the Morrill act and Iowa State is considered the "first" land-grant institution as designated by the Morrill act. There's even a building on campus named after Morrill - Morrill Hall.
