What the Spread Tells Us

With a 7-point spread, oddsmakers heavily favor the Vols despite them having to travel to Oklahoma to play. The Vols were initially only around 3.5-point favorites but the line has shifted even more in their favor as we reach closer to game time.

What the Moneyline Tells Us

The Sooners are now heavy underdogs and offer a decent payout for those who believe Oklahoma can capture the win at home. Meanwhile, those who think the Vols will win should probably put their money elsewhere, as the -270 line won't pay out very much and isn't worth the risk.

Tennessee Chances to Win vs. Oklahoma in Week 4

It's been a while since Tennessee played Oklahoma in football (2015), but this matchup should come more frequently now that Oklahoma is in the SEC. This will be Oklahoma's first conference game as a member of the SEC. The Vols have already been tested with NC State, and they won that game easily 51-10.

How the Volunteers Win vs. Oklahoma

This will be one of Tennessee's toughest matchups of the season. Oklahoma boasts a talented offense with one of the best receiving squads in the country, so the Vols will have to play mistake-free football on offense in order to keep up. 

The Volunteers winning vs. Oklahoma will likely hinge on the talent of their QB Nico Iamaleava, who is the team's starter after appearing in a handful of games last year. Iamaleava has been excellent so far this year, throwing for 698 yards and six touchdowns while adding another 102 yards and a score on the ground.

How the Sooners Win vs. Tennessee

The Sooners have a good defense with several returning starters from 2023, and they'll try to use that to their advantage by generating a strong pass rush against the Vols' young starting QB. Oklahoma also has a young, inexperienced QB in Jackson Arnold, but he has been solid so far this year with 484 yards and seven touchdowns through the air, plus 159 yards and two touchdowns on the ground.
