Top 3 Player Props

• Player Prop #1: Josh Turbyville (Tennessee) / Over Passing Yards / 265.5 / -115 / 68% / Tennessee’s high-tempo offense (45-56 PPG recent) and Arkansas secondary allowing big plays create strong volume; Turbyville confirmed on active roster and primary option.
• Player Prop #2: DJ Burks (Tennessee) / Over Rushing Yards / 78.5 / -110 / 65% / Explosive Tennessee ground game vs Arkansas defense surrendering 28+ PPG and high yards; Burks listed active on roster with usage edge.
• Player Prop #3: Miguel Mitchell (Arkansas) / Under Receiving Yards / 52.5 / -110 / 63% / Arkansas struggling offensively (avg 19.8 PPG, limited vs ranked foes); Mitchell on home roster but matchup vs Tennessee defense caps production.

⚖️ Analysis Summary

Public heavily backs Tennessee on the moneyline and spread while money % is less extreme on the number, opening a mild contrarian lean toward Arkansas +13.5 at home. Offensive metrics heavily favor the Over: Tennessee’s recent scoring explosions (56, 45, 42) against Arkansas’ porous defense (allowing 28.4 PPG, big losses to Utah/Georgia/Texas A&M) point to a higher-scoring game than 51.5. Overall edge favors following the Tennessee side for the win while taking the points and total Over for value.

🔮 Recommended Play

Follow the public with Tennessee moneyline while fading slightly on the spread (Arkansas +13.5) and riding the Over for optimal EV.
