The Tennessee Volunteers have the ability to blow the doors off here, and they’re at home, where they win by an average of 37.7 points. However, this is a decent Vanderbilt team that’s playing well, has scoring depth and has held its own on the road. We also can’t ignore this being a bit of a rivalry game. The Commodores should be up for this one. I’ll take the boatload of free points.
