Vanderbilt at Auburn picks and predictions
Prediction
Auburn 80, Vanderbilt 61
Moneyline
PASS.
Auburn (-4000) will come away with the win here, but a -4000 favorite is simply never worth the risk of betting on. Bet on the spread and/or O/U instead.
Against the spread
LEAN VANDERBILT +18.5 (-110).
Vanderbilt has covered the spread in 2 of its last 3 matchups vs. Auburn and is 5-2-1 ATS in its last 8 outings overall. The Commodores, while they haven't been phenomenal ATS, are a much better team ATS than they are straight up (SU).
Vanderbilt also covered as a 13.5-point underdog vs. the No. 5 Tennessee Volunteers Saturday and lost by just 15 points in its outing vs. Auburn Jan. 17.
This is only a lean because Auburn is the much better team both SU and ATS this season. This is a much riskier play than the O/U.

The Under has also hit in back-to-back Vanderbilt-Auburn matchups and is 6-4 in the last 10 meetings overall.
