Tennessee opens as slight favorite over Arkansas

Tennessee and Arkansas have met just two times in the past decade, with the Razorbacks winning both meetings. It was Bobby Petrino getting the better of Derek Dooley in 2011, then Bret Bielema’s bunch beating Butch Jones’ squad in 2015.

Needless to say, things have changed quite a bit since their last meeting.

Arkansas has kicked off the Sam Pittman era with some early success — at least some early signs of life. The Razorbacks are 2-3 overall, but gave Georgia a scare in week one and nearly knocked off Auburn a couple of weeks later.
