HawgBeat continues its partnership with BetSaracen, the official mobile sports wagering platform of the Saracen Casino Resort.
The long-awaited football season is here and it’s time to celebrate. The Razorbacks may not be playing Saturday, but there are some interesting matchups to take a look at.
To start, we have the No. 13 Notre Dame Fighting Irish taking on the Navy Midshipmen in Dublin, Ireland. Notre Dame is highly favored as expected, but Navy did make things interesting in a 35-32 loss last season.
If fans want to take a look at an SEC team, Vanderbilt will have you covered in its game against Hawaii. Then there's the Caleb Williams-led USC Trojans in a matchup versus the San Jose State Spartans.
The most interesting game for Arkansas fans may be Florida International against Lousiana Tech. The Razorbacks play FIU on Nov. 18 in Fayetteville.

HAWGBEAT'S PICK
Each story, HawgBeat will list a pick that looks favorable.
Parlay New Mexico St. and Vanderbilt spread (+291)
New Mexico State's week one opponent — the UMass Minutemen — posted a 1-11 overall record in 2022, including a 55-10 week one loss to Toledo. New Mexico State on the other hand finished a respectable 7-6 overall, which included a bowl game victory over Bowling Green. UMass has to travel far and I expect the Aggies to take care of business in their home stadium to cover the 7.5 point spread.
I know what you're thinking. Vanderbilt, really? Betting on a team known for getting blown out in the SEC is a tough task, but the Commodores easily handled Hawaii in Honolulu last season, 63-10. Now playing in the comforts of Nashville, Vanderbilt should be able to assert its dominance over the Warriors to cover the 17.5 point spread.
