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 will have already been tested with NC State on the docket before they take on the Sooners in Week 4.
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. This game will likely hinge on the talent of Vols quarterback Nico Iamaleava, who is the team's starter after appearing in a handful of games last year.
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, meaning the Sooners will likely lean on running back Gavin Sawchuk to help carry the load on offense. Sawchuk finished with 744 yards and nine touchdowns on the ground in 2023, and is projected to have an even better season this year if he remains healthy.
