Pick
I’m on South Alabama here. The Jaguars are just the better team by a fair margin in this matchup and I don’t really see them being challenged here by a Texas State team that has issues scoring and when they can put points up, the defense lets them down. South Alabama’s just been a lot more consistent and I think they get it done in this game. Give me the Jaguars.
