This is the third time these two have played this season. Tennessee has Ament back. Vanderbilt is walking into Nashville with all the momentum.

| Vanderbilt Commodores | -1.5 (-110) |
| Tennessee Volunteers | +1.5 (-110) |
#25 Tennessee is 22-10 overall, 11-7 in the SEC, and the 5th seed in the tournament. The Volunteers should be around a 5 seed come March. For More March Madness Betting Odds and Predictions, see the Full Hub".
Tennessee lost the fixture with Vandy, but they were missing freshman standout Nate Ament. He is good for nearly 18 points and 7 rebounds a game. He is a game-changer and adds an inside-out present to Tennessee. Can he lead Tennessee past Vandy?
#23 Vanderbilt is 24-7 overall, 11-7 in the SEC, and the 4th seed in the tournament. Illinois is slated as a low 4 or high 5 seed for the NCAA Tournament.
Tyler Tanner is the key for Vandy. The First Team ALL-SEC guard is the only player in the country averaging 19 points, 5 assists, and two steals. He put up 25 in the win at Knoxville on Saturday. Can he repeat a similar performance?
Tennessee vs. Vanderbilt is always a good game. Ament being back changes everything for Tennessee, however. Vanderbilt beat them without two of their best players. With Ament healthy and dominating the paint alongside Estrella, the Vols have the size advantage they were missing in Knoxville. Tennessee should cover the plus 1.5 spread, and don't be surprised if they win this one outright. Our pick is Tennessee ATS (+1.5).
