Texas State Bobcats vs Houston Cougars prediction

This is a lot of points for the Houston Cougars, who are undefeated on the season but just 5-5-1 ATS. I’d also assume Texas State will be the more motivated side. With that said, the Texas State Bobcats didn’t look good in games against Texas and Oklahoma, and this is steps up in competition from those games. Thick line, but Houston should comfortably pull away. It’s the Cougars or pass.
