This Saturday, September 12, the No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes will take on the No. 4 Texas Longhorns in Austin at 3:30 p.m. ET, marking a significant matchup in Week 2 of the college football season. This game is a rematch of last year's encounter, where Ohio State emerged victorious with a score of 14-7.

In their season openers, both teams performed strongly, with Texas defeating Texas State 59-7 and Ohio State overpowering Ball State 59-3. Texas is currently favored by 1.5 points, with the total points set at 49.5. Ohio State's quarterback Julian Sayin, who had a solid performance in his first start, will lead the Buckeyes, while Texas quarterback Arch Manning aims to improve after a challenging start last season.
