Arkansas Razorback Football: Razorbackers Expert Picks Against Tennessee
By Justin Lee
The Arkansas Razorback Football team has a very important game this Saturday against the Tennessee Volunteers.
This Saturday, the hogs are taking on the Vols in a matchup that may not be on anyone’s radar. However, it could be a game to watch for as these two teams are looking to end losing streaks.
The Tennessee Volunteers have the same record as the Razorbacks at 2-3. While the Hogs are currently having a successful season, many Volunteer fans are starting to second guess their Head Coach Jeremy Pruitt.
Quick Razorback Volunteer History
The last time these two teams matched up was in 2015. That game saw the hogs win 24-20. However, the Volunteers have more wins in the series with 13 to Arkansas’s five wins.
The game before the last meeting, was in 2011. Many of you hog fans out there may remember this one very well. The final score was 49-7 as the hogs stomped the Vols. This game featured the “Houdini” punt return of Joe Adams, as well as some other huge plays. Tyler Wilson also lead the team to a top five finish, and a Cotton Bowl win over Kansas State.

Arkansas 28-10. Arkansas defense bounces back after last weeks performance, and hangs their hat on the run game.

Arkansas 35- Vols 21. Tennessee has struggled with their passing game and the Razorbacks are looking to redeem themselves on defense this week following last weeks loss. The Razorbacks will run the ball heavily and get the ball into the endzone early.

The Razorbacks will find a way to win a tough one in Fayetteville this week. They need to force Tennessee into some turnovers in order to win. I think the hogs will win this one with a final score of 21-14.
