If a major American sports championship is coming up, it’s a fair bet that Jim “Mattress Mack” McIngvale will put a seven-figure wager on the contest, especially if a team from Texas is involved.
Fresh off of his incredible $75 million win on the Astros in the World Series, Mack is back, riding with underdog TCU in the College Football Playoff national title.
The Horned Frogs continued their remarkable run on Saturday, upsetting Michigan in a wild back-and-forth game, 51–45. Now, they must take down the reigning national champion, Georgia—which beat Ohio State 42–41 in another semifinal classic—to capture the most unlikely college football title in recent memory.
