Randy’s Free Pick
The Vanderbilt Commodores are the better team, but the separation between these teams isn’t that great. Also, neither of these teams are playing well. While South Carolina has issues of its own, Vanderbilt loses in SEC play by an average of 5.8 points. I’m not laying points with Vanderbilt on the road. It’s SC or pass for me.
