Texas traditionally schedules a home cupcake on week one and pummels them. These have been their week one scores this decade:
52-10
41-7
27-0*
66-7
65-0
60-3
56-7
*Note in 2002 they scheduled North Texas, who turned out to be better than anticipated, finishing 8-4, winning their conference and their bowl game.
This year, Texas opens against Arkansas State from the mighty Sun Belt conference, losers of 4 of their last 5 games including two shutouts. See if Texas is favored by less than 40.
