One bettor won nearly $1 million on Texas on Saturday night.
In a surprising upset, No. 4-ranked Texas Longhorns defeated top-ranked Ohio State 24-23 in a thrilling game on Saturday night, with one lucky bettor cashing in a $1.2 million wager on Texas. The Longhorns started the game poorly, trailing 10-0 after the first quarter and 20-3 at halftime, but fought back to score 21 unanswered points, including a winning touchdown with just 25 seconds left on the clock.
The game marked the first time Ohio State was an underdog in a regular season game against a non-Michigan opponent during head coach Ryan Day's tenure. Ohio State entered the game as 2.5-point underdogs, while Texas had a turnover on the first play and faced a 31-1 money-line odds at some sportsbooks during the game.
