South Alabama Jaguars vs. Texas State Bobcats Prediction
I’m on the Bobcats here. These teams are very similar, but the level of motivation couldn’t be further apart in this game. Texas State’s fighting for a bowl game on senior day at home, while South Alabama is simply trying to play the role of spoiler in their best case scenario. I think the Jaguars compete, but I think Texas State ends up with the win and cover at home here. Give me Texas State.
