FAMU vs. Texas Southern Prediction
Gerald Thomas III, D-Tallahassee: FAMU 30, South Texas 13
“During the Rattlers’ homecoming game, they significantly outscored their opponents 143-37. Texas Southern doesn’t have enough offensive firepower, so its defense will have to play bright to keep the Tigers in the game. FAMU will not let that happen.”
