Texas vs. Tennessee Same Game Parlay: College Football Week 4 SGP Picks

My Texas vs. Tennessee same-game parlay sees the environment as a huge factor in No. 14 Tennessee having the potential to play tough against No. 1 Texas Saturday, especially considering Texas' track record of underperforming on the road.

Texas is a 5.5-point betting favorite, with kickoff from Neyland Stadium in Knoxville, Tenn., set for noon ET (ABC).

🚀 Best Texas vs. Tennessee SGP & parlay picks

Under 54.5 (-108)

When digging into the FPI adjusted efficiency rankings, Tennessee is pretty balanced. The Vols are 19th on the offensive side, and 20th on defense. Defensively, they’ll have the crowd on their side to make life more difficult for the Longhorns, who rank 12th in adjusted offensive efficiency.

Texas presents at a pretty elite level defensively, holding Ohio State to 23 points in that marquee matchup. The Longhorns rank 4th in the nation in adjusted defensive efficiency. After Texas’ game against Ohio State totaled 47 points, I view this line at 54.5 total points as being a high bar to clear.

Tennessee +5.5 (-114)

Neither Texas nor Tennessee has been especially strong against the spread through their first three games. Each side has posted a 1-2 ATS record to this point. But the track record in this type of spot for Texas is pretty jarring.

Last season, with Arch Manning and Steve Sarkisian as constants carrying over to this campaign, Texas was one of the worst teams in the country in road games, going 0-5 ATS with an average ATS margin of -9.5 points per game.

This line at FanDuel is up to +5.5, which provides a greater edge for our purposes than the Tennessee +4.5 spread at DraftKings.

Ryan Wingo Under 54.5 receiving yards (-114)

Wingo certainly has the explosive capacity as a receiver to clear 54.5 receiving yards, and yardage marks far higher than this one. But we just haven’t seen him do it consistently.

He posted just 22 receiving yards in each of his last two games, including the Ohio State matchup that most similarly reflects this one at Tennessee in terms of expectations for the competitiveness of the game environment.
