LSU Tigers vs Texas Longhorns prediction

The LSU Tigers compete on the defensive end, but they’re just not a good team overall, and their recent loss to Kansas State establishes that. The Texas Longhorns are far more balanced and have more options to turn to on the offensive end. Texas is just 2-7 ATS on the season, but this is a game it should win by a decent margin. LSU doesn’t have the offensive options to compete. Give me Texas and the chalk.
