MTSU Blue Raiders vs Tennessee Volunteers Point Spread Picks

The Tennessee Volunteers were left in shambles to start the season. They lost their coach, players graduated, others defected, and it looked like a long year. The Vols started 10-12, but came on strong, especially with the addition of Jarell Stokes. Once Stokes got his legs, Tennessee became a different team, even getting in the bubble talk and finished 9-2 in their last 11. They have taken care of business all season at home with a 15-3 mark, and overall are an under-the-radar 14-5 ATS in their last 19. Middle Tennessee won 26 games, and couldn't get it done in the lowly Sun Belt Conference Championship. Despite the 26 wins, they weren't a consideration to the Big Dance which speaks volumes of a soft schedule and an overrated look. The Volunteers are playing at a high level and with purpose at 14-3-1 ATS in their last 18 at home, so play on Tennessee.
