Throughout the season, Chronicle college football writers Joseph Duarte and Sam Khan Jr., along with an eight-member reader panel, will pick games involving Conference USA teams and select national games.
Before we dive into the picks, it’s time for me to offer a prediction for the Rice season opener at Texas.
My pick: Texas 34, Rice 24.
Give me your predicted score.
