Southeastern Missouri vs. Vanderbilt Prediction

I’m on Southeastern Missouri with the points here. I think Vanderbilt wins comfortably, but Southeastern Missouri’s a bit of a step up from UMES, and the Commodores historically aren’t the type of teams to blow opponents out consistently. The RedHawks weren’t great in their opener, but I think they can do enough to cover with the boatload of points here. Give me Southeastern Missouri.
