Vandy To Take Advantage Of Shorthanded Yellow Jackets

We’re taking the Commodores on college football betting sites here being that nearly all of their starters will be taking the field and they didn’t get hit hard at all by the portal.

Georgia Tech though is a different story. Their star wide receiver, Eric Singleton, and starting left tackle, Corey Robinson, both hit the portal along with star outside linebacker Romelo Height who is second on the team in sacks. These departures leave massive holes to fill to which Vanderbilt is certain to act on.

On the betting side of things, Georgia Tech has struggled when the odds are in their direction as a favorite going just 2-3 ATS from that position. Vanderbilt, as we all know, has been tremendous as an underdog this season with a 7-2 record with four wins outright this season as an underdog.

Vanderbilt has played much better than a 6-6 team and could easily be 9-3 with three of their wins being decided in the final second and on game winning plays. That said, take advantage of some nice plus money odds in this one on Vandy to win outright.
