Vanderbilt +3 3.3% play
The SEC continues its dominance of the ACC and are already 1-0 this bowl season. They are 9-3 on the year vs. the SEC +8.3 ppg, and 32-17 since 2020, which includes 7-2 in bowl games +14.2ppg. Vanderbilt is thrilled to be in a bowl game again, and I think they match up well against Georgia Tech who relies heavily on the rushing attack of their QB Haynes King, but Vanderbilt’s run defense has been stout all year. Georgia Tech averages nearly 2 yards per carry more in their wins vs. losses, and Vanderbilt has held some of the better running QB in check.. Milroe 7 carries 10 yards, Drones 16 for 19 yards, SEllers 13 for 38. Vanderbilt was also 7-2 ATS as a dog with 4 upsets and nearly upset Texas and Alabama. They played banged up but inspiring football down the stretch and should be healthy for the first time in a while. This should be an entertaining game, but I like Vanderbilt to win the game because of their defensive line and the play of their QB Pavia. Pavia has healthier than he was down the stretch, and that’s a big reason I”m supporting VAnderbilt today. He also gets to go up against Georgia Tech who ranks 100th in pass success rate defense, 129th in sack rate, which should allow him to move the ball here.
