Texas first No. 1 team to be underdog in Week 1

The article discusses the surprising situation where the top-ranked Texas Longhorns football team is considered an underdog in their season-opening matchup against the third-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes. This is notable because Texas has been named the No. 1 team in the preseason AP Top 25 poll for the first time in the program's history. However, despite this lofty ranking, oddsmakers have made the Longhorns underdogs for their Week 1 clash with Ohio State. The article does not provide further details on the reasoning behind this underdog status or the specific odds, but the fact that the preseason No. 1 team is not favored to win their first game of the season is an unusual and unexpected development in college football.
