Why Tennessee can cover

The Vols have a Heisman Trophy hopeful in quarterback Nico Iamaleava. The redshirt freshman quarterback is a former five-star recruit, who is one of the best all-around athletes in college football. Iamaleava, a 6-foot-6 dual-threat, has excelled in Josh Heupel's offense in his first full season as the program's starter. Through four games, he has 892 passing yards, seven touchdowns and two interceptions. 

The Vols will be getting a major boost with the return of both starting offensive tackles for this game. Left tackle Lance Heard missed the entire Oklahoma game, while right tackle John Campbell suffered an injury and left in the second quarter. Tennessee is 4-0 against the spread this season. Neither is listed on the official injury report this week. See which team to pick here

Why Arkansas can cover

Tennessee gets a lot of attention for its high-powered offense, but Arkansas isn't far behind. The Hogs average 495.0 total yards and 35.8 points per game. Arkansas uses a balanced approach, with per game averages of 283.0 passing yards and 212.0 rushing yards.

Quarterback Taylen Green, a transfer from Boise State, has kept opposing defenses off balance with his dual-threat skillset. The 6-foot-6 junior has thrown for 1,236 yards, five touchdowns, and five interceptions, and rushed for 331 yards and four scores. Running back Ja'Quinden Jackson has also been a key part of the Razorbacks offense, rushing for 509 yards and nine touchdowns on 79 carries (6.4 yards per carry) this season. See which team to pick here
