No. 22 Texas opens as underdogs for road showdown with Iowa State

Despite coming off of a key home win over what was then a ranked Kansas State team, the Texas Longhorns (6-3, 4-2) opened as early road underdogs for next weekend’s Big 12 meeting with the Iowa State Cyclones (5-4, 3-3).

Per VegasInsider, the Longhorns are 7-point underdogs, while CircaSports pegs Texas as a 5.5-point underdog.

Last season in Austin, the Longhorns had few issues in beating then-No. 16 Iowa State, 24-10. If Texan can replicate that success this time around, it will mark the Horns’ first winning streak since beating Oklahoma State and West Virginia to begin the Big 12 slate.
