LSU vs Texas A&M Prediction 

Texas A&M comes into this matchup after a bad loss to Kentucky last week and they will be on the road in a tough place to play here. The Aggies really didn’t play great against ASU two weeks ago either, so they need figure it out quickly. LSU is also coming off of a loss against Ole Miss and Leavitt has had turnover issues. The Tigers are the better team in this game, but something just seems off with them right now. Take Texas A&M and the points here.
