They began their history in 2006 as an expansion team in the Intense Football League. They went 8–6 in their first season, but lost in the semifinals to Corpus Christi. In 2007, the team finished 2–12, just avoiding last place. Their 2008 campaign started off shaky, but then the team added former Texas Longhorn quarterback James Brown, who helped lead the Cudas to their second playoff appearance and first playoff win, against Alaska. CenTex then faced Corpus Christi in the semifinal once again, and lost.
After the 2008 season, owner/president Dr. Frederick Barnett sought financial partners to keep the team afloat. Finding none locally based, the team eventually folded.
