The Vanderbilt Commodores are a team I liked entering the season and thought they could be a sleeper in the SEC, but they’re off to a sluggish start this season and have looked shaky against the better teams on their schedule. The Loyola-Chicago Ramblers are playing the better ball entering this contest, and their offensive firepower has the ability to bury Vandy, even on the road. I have to lay the reasonable chalk here.
