Auburn vs. Vanderbilt CBB Prediction:
Auburn is coming off a 90-81 home loss to No. 6 Florida, ending their 14-game winning streak. This defeat marked their first conference loss of the season. Vanderbilt, meanwhile, has been strong at home, with notable victories over then-No. 6 Tennessee and then-No. 9 Kentucky.
Ultimately, I see the No. 1 Tigers bouncing back. Auburn is 7-3 straight up over its last 10 games versus Vanderbilt, covering the spread in six of those 10 contests. The Commanders have also been sliding ATS, covering just twice over their last five games.
