When the lines opened for the West Virginia-Texas game, the Longhorns were favored by 7.5 points. As the week went on and money started coming WVU’s way, the line dipped down to 6.5 points. Not surprising to see that kind of action.
In the last five games of the series only twice has this game been decided by one score or less. However, both times that game was played in Austin and decided by a combined five points. The running trend is that the game on Saturday will in face be a close one. Taking a look at the final BetMGM betting odd we can see that the line has moved yet again.
