College Football Betting Online From Texas
There is likely to be a long wait before Texas allows sports betting in any statewide establishment. Do not dispair as a few dozen internationally licensed and highly reputable sportsbooks will accept wagers on the upcoming NFL and College Football season.

The short answer is NO.
Yep, even with the Dallas Cowboys, Houston Rockets, Texas Rangers, A&M Aggies, and the list goes on and on....

The official platform of the state’s Republican party includes a line stating opposition to legalized gambling.
“The state has decided to export its gambling dollars to Lake Charles, to Shreveport, to Oklahoma, and to Las Vegas,” said Matt Mackowiak, a Republican strategist and former press secretary of Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. “The question is, how long is Texas going to be satisfied sending those dollars elsewhere?”
There are still potential options as Oklahoma mulls over the possibilities of legalized sports betting, though the state is not in easy reach of most Texas cities and towns other than Dallas/Fort Worth, which is accessible to the WinStar Casino in Oklahoma. That casino just became the first to partner with the NFL the first week in September 2018.
