Condon to the Rescue

#4 Florida is 26-6 overall, 16-2 in the SEC, and the 1st seed in the tournament. Florida has won 12 games in a row and is a projected 1 seed for March. For More March Madness Betting Odds and Predictions, see the Full Hub".

Florida is looking to win every piece of hardware this year. In their matchup versus Kentucky, they had a subpar shooting night to say the least. However, the inside presence of Alex Condon carried them to a win. He delivered 22 points and 10 rebounds? Anybody can beat you on this Florida team, who will step up tonight?

Vandy Runs Nashville

#23 Vanderbilt is 24-7 overall, 11-7 in the SEC, and the 4th seed in the tournament. Vanderbilt 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. Darius Miles was the story of the night yesterday. In his fifth game back from injury, he dropped 30 to take down their interstate rivals. With this backcourt humming, can they upset the regular-season champs?

#22 Vanderbilt vs #4 Florida NCAAB Pick:

Vanderbilt vs Florida should be one of the best games today. It will be a battle of one of the best frontcourts in the nation versus one of the best backcourts. We think this game will be a toss-up, and whoever can find their shooting rhythm should take the game. With that said, we think the line is disrespectful to Vandy. We think they will cover and potentially win. Our pick is Vandy ATS (+8.5)
