Vanderbilt vs Saint Mary's College Basketball Betting Preview
The Gaels are 3.5-point underdogs at the time of writing, and the biggest early takeaway is the stylistic matchup this game presents.
The Commodores rank 33rd in average possessions, a stark contrast from Saint Mary’s, which ranks 308th in that category.
Fast teams are typically the easier bet to swallow when projecting a matchup like this, and I mean that for the sake of the public bettors.
But time and time again, we see teams that like to play fast get frustrated against teams that settle in the half-court a majority of the time. That's the type of game we have here in the Bahamas.
The under wouldn’t be a bad play, but my confidence lies in the Gaels. I think they can win this game, but ultimately, I'll tuck the points in my back pocket.
My official play is +3.5. If the line at your book is lower than three, take a stab at the moneyline.
My Pick: Saint Mary’s +3.5 (Play ML if Lower Than +3)
