• Vanderbilt has lost the first half in four of its last five games played at neutral venues.

Vanderbilt vs Nevada Prediction

The Vanderbilt Commodores have held their own up to this point and are rolling offensively, so there’s reason to consider the points. However, the Nevada Wolf Pack are undefeated and 4-0 ATS on the season, and they’ve played elite ball at both ends of the floor. It’s a statement game for Vanderbilt. I’m more comfortable and confident in what we’ve seen from Nevada up to this point. The line is more than reasonable. Give me Nevada for another win and cover.
