Comments

This is a rematch of two teams that put up nearly 150 points combined in 2018 in College Station. The Aggies pulled that one out. I think they pull this one out as well. LSU, of course, is not the Tiger team of 2019 or even 2018. They do have some very good players but many are young just need time to develop. LSU could pull a surprise over this very solid on both sides of the ball A&M squad but I doubt it. I think Texas A&M wins by 10 at home.
