The many faces of Matthew McConaughey will all be on display at Darrell K. Royal Stadium in Austin on Saturday afternoon.

McConaughey, a die-hard Texas Longhorns fan, will have his own section in the stadium on Saturday, as Texas hosts TCU in a Big 12 showdown. But the famous Hollywood star won’t be in attendance personally, instead, cardboard cutouts of all of his big-time movie roles will occupy the seats in the stadium.

Texas shared the video of their section dedicated to McConaughey before Saturday’s game:

Everyone is getting creative with their carboard cutouts with limited fan attendance this season. Texas has one of the more unique ideas in the sport.

Texas and TCU are scheduled for a noon ET kickoff on Saturday. The Longhorns are 2-0, overcoming a two-touchdown deficit last weekend to Texas Tech to hang on to its perfect record. TCU is 0-1 after a loss to Iowa State.

The Longhorns are a 10-point favorite.
