Texas A&M Arkansas SEC betting odds

The line was off the board to start the week with the status of Arkansas starting quarterback Brandon Allen in question for Saturday’s SEC game.

Allen suffered a bruised shoulder in the Razorbacks’ win over Southern Miss two weeks ago. He did not play in Arkansas’ loss to Rutgers last week. Without Allen, Arkansas blew a 17-point fourth-quarter lead to Rutgers. Junior college transfer AJ Derby started against Rutgers.

A&M bounced back from its loss to Alabama by pummeling SMU, behind another big performance from electric quarterback Johnny Manziel.

Manziel lit up Arkansas for 453 yards passing in a 58-10 drubbing last season.

This will be the SEC debut for first-year Arkansas coach Brett Beilima.

They will face the 3-1 Aggies, who own a 3-1 ATS mark on the season. In totals betting, the Razorbacks are 2-2 favoring the UNDER so far this season while the Aggies are 3-1 favoring the OVER.
