How big an upset was Texas State’s win over Houston?

* Houston was favored by 34.5 points
* Texas State was only the 7th underdog of 34 points or more to win a college football game (since 1980)
* There has been 728 underdogs of 34 points or more since 1980 (with less than 1% winning the game)
* $100 risked on Texas State to win the game paid $12,000 (120 to 1 odds!)
* Texas State is the only underdog of 34 points or more to win the game by more than a touchdown.
