Does Texas have an automatic merit scholarship program like Florida (Bright Futures)? If so, then that would totally explain the jump in enrollment--families who wouldn't otherwise send a kid to college are able to do so, and families with money are sending their children to in-state schools instead of private or out-of-state publics.
It's across the state in Florida too--it's not just UF and FSU which are bulging at the seams, but schools that are less known as football powerhouses or who don't have football teams at all.
