The Citadel Bulldogs just can’t get out of their own way defensively, and those issues usually don’t fix themselves on the road. The Vanderbilt Commodores have been playing above-average ball at both ends of the floor, and they’re 7-3 ATS on the season. Oddsmakers clearly are trying to catch up to Vanderbilt, but I’m going to ride the hot hand until it runs cold. Vanderbilt is playing well and has the offensive horses to give The Citadel fits. I’ll lay the points.
