HAWGBEAT'S PICKS
Each week, HawgBeat will list a few picks that look favorable based on trends and statistics throughout the season.
Ty Washington OVER 39.5 receiving yards and OVER 0.5 receiving touchdowns (+475)
Here are opposing tight ends' stats against Alabama this season (Power Five only):
Texas: 5 REC, 114 YDS
Ole Miss: 1 REC, 21 YDS
Mississippi State: N/A
Texas A&M: 4 REC, 45 YDS, TD
It should be noted that neither Ole Miss or Mississippi State put a major emphasis on their tight end positions in the passing game, hence the low production. Texas and Texas A&M both use their tight ends to push the ball down the field, so their situations are more comparable to Arkansas'.
Last week against Ole Miss, Washington had a breakout game with seven receptions for 90 yards and two touchdowns. There's no guarantee that he'll be able to play up to that level week in and week out, but as the Razorbacks' primary receiving threat at the position, it's worth sprinkling a little bit on with these odds.
Jermaine Burton OVER 57.5 receiving yards (-115)
Alabama's leading wide receiver, Burton has 386 receiving yards and four touchdowns off of 17 receptions this season.
He's acquired at least 58 receiving yards in four out of the five games he's played, which includes a nine-reception, 197-yard performance against Texas A&M last weekend.
Arkansas' secondary will likely be down a few players, as Jaylon Braxton and Alfahiym Walcott both did not practice during the Monday and Tuesday media viewings. Dwight McGlothern is expected to make his return this week after suffering a concussion against Texas A&M, but the high-caliber Arkansas defensive back might have to shake off some rust.
Look for Burton to continue his steak of 58-yard receiving games against Arkansas.
