The Volunteers notched a much-needed 20-10 victory against SEC rival Mississippi State after hammering a 77 points, and getting thumped in their final two by conference foes, both Georgia and Florida. But the Tennessee defense rallied, holding the Bulldogs to garnering a seven sacks and only 10 points while picking off three passes. In addition, freshman quarterback, Brian Maurer, who had supplanted junior Jarrett Guarantano, left the game in the second quarter with a concussion.
Alabama is the very best group in the country and given more evidence last week the reason they deserve this distinction when they traveled to the hostile environs of College Station, to take on No. 24 Texas A&M, also emerged with a 47-28 victory whilst covering the amount as 17-point street chalk. Tua Tagovailoa withdrew his first pick of the season but also established for 293 yards and four TD strikes, while dividing A.J. McCarrons college record for most career passing touchdowns, also currently leads the nation with 27 on the year.
The school football odds at each one the top-rated online sportsbooks are currently offering the Tide as 34. It seems there is no line too steep to stop the public from laying it in on Nick Sabans wrecking crew however, on the flip side, Bama has covered in half of their matches despite being labeled as anywhere from 17 to 54 1/2 point favorites over the course of their six matches thus far.
Alabama has not lost since 2006 to Tennessee and has covered the number of their last nine contests. I cant find anything since the Vols dont have much of an offense to speak 22, changing in this matchup despite giving up 28 in their performance, and Bamas defense can be among the very best.
However, unlike past seasons, even when the defense of Alabama may win a match on its own, this years edition is not quite as stingy but the crime more than compensates for any lapse in that respect. As great as Tennessees defense was last week in shutting down Mississippi Statethey will not have a prayer from Tua and company. The Crimson Tide boasts a juggernaut thats currently averaging 51 points per game along with a defense holding opponents to 17 PPG.
Tennessee freshman QB Brian Maurer is likely to suit up this week and start against the Tide despite sustaining a concussion a week. Regardless who barks signals from below center for the Vols, it doesnt make all that difference although Im not sure he is an upgrade from Jarrett Guarantano. The Tides defense will have its own way and the offense will shred Tennessee from the air and on the ground. back Alabama in your school football picks on Saturday 17, this one resembles a laugher.
