ESPN's Booger McFarland Puts Top 5 College Football Team on Upset Watch

Nico Iamaleava and the No. 4 Tennessee Volunteers are heading into Fayetteville for a highly-anticipated SEC matchup against the Arkansas Razorbacks on Saturday night.

The Volunteers are 4-0 to start the 2024 college football season. But according to ESPN analyst Booger McFarland, that undefeated streak could be coming to an end at Razorback Stadium.

During the ESPN Halftime Report of Saturday afternoon's SEC matchup between the No. 9 Missouri Tigers and No. 25 Texas A&M Aggies, McFarland put Tennessee on upset watch.

McFarland said he expects the Razorbacks to keep it close well into the fourth quarter. He cited the elite running back play of SEC rushing leader Ja'Quinden Jackson and home-field advantage as reasons the Razorbacks could mount an upset.

Arkansas is 3-2 to start the year with losses coming to the No. 16 Oklahoma State Cowboys and the No. 24 Texas A&M Aggies.

Tennessee is listed as a 13.5-point favorite over Arkansas. Saturday night's game will kickoff at 7:30 p.m. ET.
