These teams are VERY similar statistically. However, there are a few glaring stats that can’t be ignored! Tennessee whooped up on the Aggies over the past two matchups, beating them by double digits twice. Second, the Vols are playing better defense, allowing only 38% over their past five games. Lastly, the Volunteers played a tougher schedule this season. With that being said, you can’t discount being hot! The Aggies have been playing excellent ball, however, with a point spread of 6.5, there is absolutely ZERO value here, so I’m recommending you either bet lunch money or pass!
