FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – No. 4 Tennessee football hits the SEC road again as it tries to stay undefeated against Arkansas.

The Vols (4-0, 1-0 SEC) should be confident and well rested after an open week. They are ranked No. 1 in scoring offense (54 ppg) and No. 2 in scoring defense (7 ppg) in the nation.

Tennessee beat Oklahoma on the road. If the Vols can beat Arkansas (3-2, 1-1) in a second straight road game, they would return to Knoxville unbeaten for a four-game home stand.

Here are the updates and highlights from Tennessee’s game against Arkansas.

Tennessee vs Arkansas prediction

Tennessee 34, Arkansas 17: This feels like a game where Tennessee stretches its offense a little more. A few big pass plays. Dylan Sampson runs for 100+ yards. And the Vols defense forces Arkansas QB Taylen Green into a couple of poor decisions. Check out more predictions from our Knox News staff.

FAYETTEVILLE, AR — One of the biggest SEC games of Week 6 of the college football season sees the Tennessee Volunteers head down to Fayetteville for a tough road matchup with the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday night.

#4 Tennessee Volunteers (4-0, 1-0 SEC) vs. Arkansas Razorbacks (3-2, 1-1 SEC)

• When: Saturday, October 5
• Time: 7:30 p.m. ET
• Where: Razorback Stadium (Fayetteville, Ark.)
• Channel: ABC
• Stream: FuboTV (Free Trial), Sling, DirecTV Stream, ESPN+

The Volunteers are off to a hot start just like they were in 2022, and they are looking like a threat in the SEC once again. The team started off the 2024 campaign by running through some cupcake matchups, which included a primetime matchup with North Carolina State in Week 2. They proved they could win on the road as well, as they handed Oklahoma a 25-15 loss in the Sooners’ first game in the SEC. The Vols have been fortunate enough to have a bye week since that win and are looking for another key road victory on Saturday night.

Not if the Razorbacks have anything to say about it. Pig Sooie is still hot after losing a hard-fought battle with Texas A&M last Saturday, marking their second loss against a Power 4 school this season. While Arkansas has shown some spark this year, including a win on the road against Auburn two weeks ago, they have been playing in some tight games, as just one of their first five games has been determined by more than 10 points.

Tennessee is 13-6 against Arkansas, though the Razorbacks have won the last three meetings, including that last matchup against the Vols in 2020.

MY PICK: Arkansas wins, 24-20
