Vanderbilt has had the privilege of getting each of its first three games in Nashville, but they haven’t exactly done the most with those contests. In their first year without James Franklin, the team has looked like a shell of its former self.

[dfads params=’groups=63738&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

The Commodores have done a real number on bettors this season, going 0-3 against the number, with a 72-point combined discrepancy in those three games. The team seemed to be in good shape with Derek Mason coming in to replace Franklin, but it doesn’t seem that way now.

The team was lit up by not only Ole Miss, but Temple as well. In fact, the Commodores trailed the Rebels as much as 41-0 in that contest. Even in their victory they didn’t look impressive, trailing UMass by as many as 11 points in the fourth quarter – and, again, that was at home.

[dfads params=’groups=66501&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Mason has employed a scheme change on defense and the boys just have not taken well to it. The offense hasn’t handled the change on that side of the ball well either, and the rotating of quarterbacks hasn’t helped get any stability on that side of the ball.

The Commodore offense has seen both Patton Robinette and Stephen Rivers struggle at the position. Vanderbilt has all of five touchdowns on the season, and the offense has only produced two of them, meaning they’ve been outscored by their own defense and special teams.

As for South Carolina, they’re coming off a big win, but don’t expect them to get hit by the letdown spot.

[dfads params=’groups=63739&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Steve Spurrier expressed his frustration with the defense a week ago, so the players on that side certainly have something to prove here, while the offense has a lot to work on as well.

FREE Vanderbilt vs. South Carolina ATS Pick:

Vanderbilt is really in a bad way right now, and they’re taking a major step up in class in this one. We’ve already seen the kind of trouble they’re in for when they take on elite SEC foes when they faced off against Ole Miss. Now they get a South Carolina team that is looking to build a big margin after a couple of close victories. That spells big trouble for the Commodores.

South Carolina is 4-0 ATS in their last four games following a straight up win, while Vanderbilt is 0-4 ATS in its last four home games.

The under is 5-1-1 in the last seven meetings between these teams, and it is 4-1 in the Gamecocks’ last five games following an ATS victory.

The Vikings lost their top offensive playmaker for an indefinite period of time Friday when Adrian Peterson was indicted in Texas on charges of reckless or negligent injury to a child. The team will now lean on backup Matt Asiata, and rookie Jerick McKinnon to carry the load.

[dfads params=’groups=63753&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

That’s a significant blow to a Viking offense that relied so heavily on Peterson to move the football. The 2012 NFL MVP gives way to Asiata, who ran for 115 yards in the season finale a year ago when Peterson sat with a sprained foot, but he’s just a between-the-tackles plodder who lacks explosiveness.

The rookie, McKinnon, is the more explosive player, who has the ability to make big plays with his speed and athleticism.

[dfads params=’groups=66501&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

That won’t serve the team well Sunday as McKinnon will cede early touches to Asiata, and the Patriots surely won’t give him a lot of room to operate.

That’s also going to put a lot more pressure on Matt Cassel to accomplish something through the air. Patriots head coach Bill Belichick knows Cassel well from their time together in New England, and he’ll surely put together a game plan that will exploit Cassel’s weaknesses.

As for the Patriots, they had a tough start to their year, dropping their opener in Miami against the division rival Dolphins. The team’s offensive line did a poor job in front of Tom Brady, which really limited the effectiveness of the team’s offense.

They should arrive in Minnesota better prepared, and can be expected to make some noise against a Vikings secondary that is easily exploited through the air.

[dfads params=’groups=63752&limit=1&return_javascript=0′]

Free New England vs. Minnesota Pick:

The Patriots were always the pick in this one. When the Peterson news first broke, the Patriots were three-point favorites. After oddsmakers took the line off the board for a brief time, they reintroduced it at 3.5 points, and when Peterson was officially made inactive, it was bumped up to a full seven points.

The line movement and the actions of the oddsmakers would indicate that the sharps are on the Vikings, and while that may be so, the Patriots are just so much better than the Vikings that it’s impossible to consider any other play.

The Patriots are 32-13-1 ATS in their last 46 games following a loss.

The under is 12-2 in the Vikings’ last 14 Week 2 games, and it is 4-1 in the last five meetings between these teams.
