Public heavily on Vanderbilt +2.5 (68% bets) amid upset hype from 9-win season, but divergent money (55% Vandy) and RLM toward Tennessee signal sharp action on home side. Math favors fading public with Tennessee cover (54% model prob) given superior SP+/home splits despite Vanderbilt’s form. Game projects high-scoring (68 pts avg) with both offenses top-25 efficiency, weak defenses yielding explosive plays.
