Your thoughts on the hogs/vols game.

I'm leaning the Hogs here as the Vol Run defense is one of the worst in the SEC, giving up over 167 yards a game (they allowed 259 on the ground against Arkansas in a loss last year). I think they'll obviously stack the box and I think they'll be leading at the half, but I'm just not sure they can manage to build a big enough lead necessary to prevent Arkansas from winning the game in the late stages, when the Hogs are pounding McFadden and Jones at a battered defensive unit. I like Arkansas in a mild upset on the road.

Personally I like the Vols. McFadden will probably have a big game but an average Arkansas team playing in Tennessee spells trouble. Not going to make a play however

Ark should take this one by reasons stated above. Also, home field advantage in Knoxville isn't what it has been in the past. LSU, South Carolina, Georgia, are a few of the teams that have come in and beat TN at home. Add arkansas to the list as the vols can't stop the hog's ground game with a not-so-physical D.

every natural impulse in my brain is saying tennessee but with this game being close to a pick i have to take the worse all- around team with the worst coach (debatable)in college football. arkansas will still probably win this one but i'm going to pass and take auburn to the house.

I would go with the Vols

you have to wonder why this line opened at ark -1. begs the public to go with tennessee. nothings a guarantee but thisline seems fishy enough for me to play ark in this one. same goes for auburn- another funky line. i believe auburn's d will also be their o in this one. playing both roadies n a small parlay.

This game kinda reminds me of the Georgia/Tennessee game, where the Vols just rolled over the Dogs. I have a feeling that the Vols will do just about the same to the razorbacks, despite having a bad defense, and they are (just like the game against Georgia) playing at home.
