This is the one LSU and Texas fans have had circled on the calendar ever since school officials announced the matchup in Austin.

I’ve got LSU opening the season with a victory over Georgia Southern, and Texas should take care of business in its opener against Louisiana Tech.

The Longhorns have a lot of shoes to fill with eight starters gone from last year’s defense that finished 67th in the country in total defense (392.8) and tied for 57th in scoring (25.9).
