We have a feeling this just may be a case of ‘anything you can do, we can do better’ for the No. 2 team in the land. Last Saturday, top-ranked LSU disposed of Rocky Top, 38-7, and it won’t get any easier this week for the Bray-less Vols. As it is, the Tide have rolled in this series of late (4-1 ATS last five), holding Tennessee to 10 or less points in each of the last three meetings. The Tuscaloosa tribe is also a well-focused 7-3 ATS before a game against undefeated conference opposition. The funny thing is when you see these Volunteers’ numbers, you may question why we’re now backing the big chalk: the men from Knoxville are 5-0 ATS away off three or more homers, 5-1 ATS as dogs of 15 or more points and 4-1 ATS on the road against undefeated opposition from Game Six out. However, despite all of those good numbers, it’s just not wise to trust a back-up signal-caller making a first start at Bryant-Denny Stadium. Lay the big number as the No. 2 team in the nation ‘tries harder’ tonight under the Tuscaloosa lights.
