College Football Odds & Weather: Wind in Forecast for 6 Games on Saturday, Including Texas vs. Oklahoma State

It's not much of a secret that weather can affect the outcome of a football game. And as such, it shouldn't come as a surprise that oddsmakers often shift lines on account of game conditions.

But what may not be as well known is just how much weather — and in particular, wind — matters. Thankfully we have a database that can tell us exactly that.

Since 2005, college football games played in winds of 13+ mph have hit the under at a 57% on a sample of more than 1,000 games (552-424-34).

And considering that's a win rate that would make just about any professional bettor happy, you might now be curious as to which of Saturday's games fit the bill. So, let's take a look.
