Week 2 Thursday play.
SC at Vandy. I have researched this game and can not see how Vandy covers this, Looking at the simple stats alone, I started this play as a 3star but have come down to a 2star.
SC 9-2 ATS past 12 games on road.
SC have won last 4 games at Vandy
SC leads all time series 14-3
Road team is 4-2 SU
Road team is 5-0 ATS against each other.
This will be a big conference game for both teams as neither want to open conference play with a lost. Although Vandy is at home. SC will have a very good crowd there. Dont expect the crowd to be a factor. Vandy showed us last week they like to run the ball behind a young O line who played well last week. Promblem is SC Defense is not on the same page as Miami Ohio. I know the headlines are saying revenge is not on the minds of the SC players but come on. There told to say that. You tell me what 19 to 22 year old kid doesn't want to punish the team that pretty much can be the blame for sending them in a downward spiral last year. Mix in that Smelley took the loss and now he gets his chance to redeem himself. I have SC beating them by 20+ Dont be surprised to see a close game in the beginning as it is Thursday Night football and a spot Vandy is not used to in the national spotlight. SC defense will dominate and if the running game gets going early which was missing from last years game and opens up the passing game in Vandy's ? secondary. I'm going with an easy cover.
SC -10 220 to win 200
