What to Know

The Colorado State Rams will hit the road to start this year's campaign against the Texas Longhorns. Kickoff is scheduled at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium.

One of the more interesting stats to watch in this game could be rushing touchdowns, as these two produced some pretty different results last year. Texas finished last season ranked 22nd in the nation, with 26 on the season. Colorado State, on the other hand, didn't do so hot: they were ranked 124th with ten.

Looking back to last season, Texas had a phenomenal run, finishing with a superb 12-1 record. On the other hand, Colorado State will seek to improve after finishing 5-7.

Going forward, Texas is probably looking forward to this one considering their 34.5 advantage in the spread. They finished last season with a 7-5-1 record against the spread.

Texas ought to be happy about their advantage in the spread: the team was a solid 11-1 when favored last season. Betting on them to win was the most profitable play last year, as bettors who put $100 on that outcome in every game walked away with $310.27. Sadly, Colorado State will open their season as the underdog, and the team was 2-5 as such last year.

The oddsmakers had a good feel for the line for this one, as the game opened with the Longhorns as a 34-point favorite.

The over/under is 60.5 points.
