Vanderbilt is playing the best basketball of any team in Nashville right now. They just routed the defending national champions by 17. That's Florida's worst loss in 3 years. It's due to the guard tandem of Tyler Tanner and Duke Miles. The two combined for 35 points and 15 assists against Florida and will be looking to do the same in the biggest game of the year.
#17 Arkansas is 25-8 overall, 13-5 in the SEC, and the 3rd seed in the tournament. They are projected to be a 4 seed come March.
Arkansas is here for the first time since 2017, and they almost didn't make it. Ole Miss pushed them to overtime, and poor free-throw shooting nearly gave it away. A big game by Meleek Thomas was the catalyst to them making it to Sunday. He scored 29 points, and each one of them was crucial. Can he repeat this performance in the championship game?
Vanderbilt vs Arkansas will be a fun one. Both teams have elite guards and love to play fast. Neither team is built to slow it down. In a championship environment with everything on the line, expect both offenses to come out firing. We're going over 165.5.
