Tennessee vs Oklahoma Prediction
Oklahoma hasn’t looked right in its last 3 games, as Mateer isn’t the difference maker he was before the injury, and that defense has taken a step back. Tennessee is fourth in total offense and second in scoring offense, so the Sooners don’t get a chance to regroup. If Oklahoma is going to show up with the same effort it brought against Texas and Ole Miss, it will get boat raced in this spot. Tennessee has won 26 straight home games as a favorite and with the soft line, you’re basically only asking the Vols to win. I’ll lay the small number with Tennessee at home.
