- Analysis
- (#651) Kentucky Wildcats @ (#652) Vanderbilt Commodores | UNDER | .
Bringing in a perfect record over its past five games, Kentucky is finally beginning to play like we're used to seeing a Kentucky team play like. The Wildcats are allowing 72.6 PPG over that stretch and that's against very good SEC play! Both matchups in this series went "under" last year and quite easily.
While I've won with a Vanderbilt "over" in this month as my SEC TOM, I do believe that the matchups tell the story in College Hoops for totals. The Commodores were feisty defensively in their last matchup allowing only 58 points against MSST. I expect another great showing from the defense as they will probably need to, to get past the red hot Wildcats. Play on the "under."
Burns' Prediction: 75-74 Vanderbilt.
