HAWGBEAT'S PICK

Each week, HawgBeat will list a few picks that look favorable based on trends and statistics throughout the season.

Parlay Arkansas -38.5 & OVER 58.5 points (+185)

To keep it short and sweet, Arkansas should have no issue scoring on a Kent State defense that allowed 723 total yards against UCF in Week 1. Yes, Raheim "Rocket" Sanders is out due to injury, but the depth at the running back position will be more than enough to gash the dead-last rushing defense in the country. Kent State will likely scrounge up 7-10 points throughout the game, and I think the Razorbacks have the firepower to make up the rest for the over to hit as well.

Luke Hasz OVER 19.5 receiving yards & OVER 3.5 receptions (+450)

The freshman tight end from Bixby, Oklahoma, caught just two passes for 19 yards in his debut against Western Carolina, but those numbers should improve this weekend. Hasz dealt with some cramps and head coach Sam Pittman even said they probably left Hasz in for too long against the Catamounts. These odds are too good to not sprinkle a little bit on it.

Jacolby Criswell OVER 24.5 passing yards & OVER 0.5 passing TDs (+120)

The transfer from North Carolina completed his only two passes for 28 yards and one touchdown in Week 1. I don't think it's wild to say that Kent State is worse than Western Carolina and Criswell might get in even earlier than he did last Saturday. At plus money, this is another bet that you might as well throw some cash on.
