Texas vs Chicago State Prediction
The Texas Longhorns are obviously the more talented team and have the ability to blow the doors off, but they’re also 0-2 ATS on the season and the motivation shouldn’t be there to lay the wood. It’s Chicago State. Chicago State will be up for this game more, considering it doesn’t get these big spots often. Chicago State also gave Loyola Chicago a scare as a massive underdog. This is a lot of points. It’s Chicago State or pass for me.
