Well Texas had an extensive refit pre-war and was designed as a battleship not a battlecruiser. Texas had a somewhat heavier armour scheme than Hood with thicker bulkheads and without the vulnerable turret and magazine that seemed to plague British Battlecruisers.
Bismark would likely have roughly handled Texas, she was a lot smaller than the German ship, slower and more lightly armed, however Texas had an experienced gunnery crew and would likely have had an escort of destroyers, it would only take one to sneak into torpedo range to ruin Bismarks day.
