Why Tennessee can cover
After losing on the road against Florida last month, the Volunteers have rebounded with comfortable wins over UTSA and South Carolina. Now they'll have the benefit of an additional week of rest coming off an open week and Josh Heupel's offense may need to have a few added wrinkles after Bru McCoy suffered a season-ending ankle injury against the Gamecocks.
Expect Tennessee to lean on a rushing attack that has produced 231.2 yards per game and for an improved defense to play a large role. The Volunteers haven't given up more than 350 yards of total offense in a game this season and they lead the nation in sacks per game (4.4) and rank third in tackles for loss per game (9.4). They'll look to force the Aggies to play from behind the sticks on the road. See picks at SportsLine.
Why Texas A&M can cover
Texas A&M suffered an early-season loss of its own against Miami but responded with SEC wins over Auburn and Arkansas before hitting another speed bump in last week's loss to Alabama. However, even in the loss to the Crimson Tide, the Aggies proved that they also have one of the nation's best defenses.
Texas A&M limited Alabama to just 23 rushing yards in the contest and has only given up 504 yards on the ground in six games. Opponents have only averaged 2.6 yards per carry against the Aggies this season so it will be strength on strength against a varied Tennessee rushing attack. Expect Texas A&M to load up against the run and force Joe Milton to beat them. See picks at SportsLine.
