$$$ Best Bets: College Football Week 2: Ohio State & Texas go to war in Austin
Both teams are ranked in the top five, and Ohio State enters as a slight underdog despite a 1.5-point spread, according to sportsbooks.
- On Saturday, Ohio State visits the Texas Longhorns at Darrell K. Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium in Austin for a marquee matchup between two top-five programs ranked in both the US LBM Coaches Poll and Associated Press poll.
- The Buckeyes lead the 21-year-old series 3-2 following a 14-7 victory last year in Columbus, where Texas quarterback Arch Manning struggled significantly against the Ohio State defense.
- Jeremiah Smith, who recorded 151 yards in the season opener, and quarterback Julian Sayin aim to boost an offense that managed only 14 points against Texas last year.
- Forecasts call for 90-degree temperatures in Austin, testing the visiting Buckeyes against a Texas defense favored by two points with an over/under total set at 49.5.
- Analysts suggest the outcome could impact College Football Playoff seeding in December, as both programs face difficult schedules throughout the remainder of the season.
