The Ole Miss Rebels (19-7, 14-11-1 ATS) responded to a three-game losing skid with four wins in six games, defeating Kentucky at home and LSU and South Carolina on the road. The Rebels did lose 81-71 to Mississippi State at home – the second L to their hated rivals this season. Without a mid-week game, Ole Miss is presented with five engaging contests leading up to the conference tournament, which is scheduled to begin on March 12 in Music City.

Ole Miss averages 77.8 PPG (88th) and allows 68.9 PPG (90th). The Rebels are 307th in rebounds (33.8) and 92nd in assists (15.3).

Vanderbilt Commodores Betting Preview

The Vanderbilt Commodores (17-9, 15-11 ATS) are going through a tough season phase as they lost five of the previous six games. Vanderbilt is currently on a three-game losing streak and it is back home after losing to Tennessee and Kentucky. During the game in Oklahoma, the team was in the lead by four points but experienced a substantial setback, being outscored 61-27, culminating in a 30-point defeat. In their encounter with Florida, they initially held a one-point lead but ultimately lost by 11 points. The situation worsened in Tennessee, where Vanderbilt was ahead by 13 points but squandered the opportunity to secure a victory, resulting in a five-point loss.

Vanderbilt is averaging 79.7 PPG (55th) and is allowing 72.9 PPG (214th). The Commodores are getting 34.8 RPG (249th) and are having 14.2 APG (161st). Jason Edwards is the team’s top scorer with 17.3 PPG. Devin McGlockton adds 10.9 PPG with a team-high 7.9 RPG, and a team-high 1.2 BPG, while AJ Hoggard has 10.2 PPG, a team-high 4.6 APG, and 1.2 SPG.

Vanderbilt vs Ole Miss Prediction

Ole Miss won six of the previous ten H2H duels, while the Rebels also won four of the last six at Vanderbilt. The Commodores are playing well at home this year (12-2), but Ole Miss is in better form at the moment and is looking for a top-four finish in the SEC.

It’s going to be a tight one and it could go either way, but I prefer Ole Miss right now because of the current form. They don’t even have to win here, just not to lose by more than a point. Also, we can’t ignore the fact that the rebels won each of the last two road games.
