Vanderbilt at Alabama

Alabama won the first meeting 77-67, but the Crimson Tide has been shaky lately having lost three in a row and not covering in any of them. The Tide lost for the second time to Texas A&M on Tuesday 65-56 as a two-point favorite while shooting barely 40 percent from the field and that followed blowout losses to Mississippi State and Florida. The defense has been lacking and offensively, Alabama has averaged only 57 points its last three games. Vanderbilt is desperate for a win and this is an excellent opportunity to get one. The Commodores allow opponents only a .424 field goal percentage and they won last year's meeting 76-75. Alabama already has home losses to Florida and Texas A&M and look for another tonight. Play Vanderbilt on the moneyline.
