This screams trap game for the Volunteers; we'll see whether they walk into it or avoid it. Their playoff dreams were trashed last week at South Carolina, and to make it worse, star quarterback Hendon Hooker suffered a season-ending knee injury late in the blowout loss. Depressed and down a Heisman Trophy candidate is no way to walk into a rivalry game.
The Commodores, meanwhile, look like they've turned the corner at last under second-year coach Clark Lea. After losing his first 13 SEC games, Lea now has a two-game winning streak after upsetting Kentucky and Florida. Vandy has run the ball effectively in November, and Tennessee's defense is vulnerable. The question is whether the 'Dores can avoid being torched by the Vols' vertical passing game — but backup quarterback Joe Milton isn't known for his accuracy.
BET: Vanderbilt +14
