NCAAF Week 8 Betting – Vanderbilt Commodores vs. Georgia Bulldogs
The Vanderbilt Commodores are the surprise team of the SEC Conference this season. They have been very good this season. Yes, they did lose their last game to Mississippi State but that’s okay because the weekend before they beat the Auburn Tigers. The most surprising thing for college football betting fans is how the Commodores have suddenly found out how to play defense. They haven’t given up more than 21 points in a single game this season.
Of course, that could all change because Vandy hasn’t met a team like the Georgia Bulldogs yet this year. The Bulldogs are loaded on offense. They have one of the best quarterbacks in college football in Matthew Stafford. Their running back, sophomore Knowshon Moreno, isn’t too shabby either. With Stafford and Moreno back there it’s going to be hard for the Commodores to keep the Bulldogs out of the end zone. In fact, I predict that Georgia puts up at least thirty on Vandy in this game. Online betting fans just need to think about it. Georgia put up 30 against Alabama, in a losing cause, and 26 against Tennessee. Does Vandy have a better defense than those two teams?

Here are a few online wagering trends that might help us find a good online bet in this game.
The Vanderbilt Commodores are 4 and 0 against the spread versus a team with a winning record.
The Vanderbilt Commodores are 12-5-1 against the spread in their last 18 games on the road.
The Georgia Bulldogs are 6 and 1 against the spread versus a team with a winning record.
The Georgia Bulldogs are 5-2-1 against the spread in their last 8 games on grass.
Georgia won’t let Vanderbilt surprise them. The Bulldogs were 11 points away from making one of the greatest comebacks in college football history versus the Alabama Crimson Tide a couple of weeks ago.
The loss to the Tide still stings. The Bulldogs are one of the best offensive teams in the nation. Luckily for them, Vanderbilt doesn’t really play offense. So whatever points that Georgia puts on the board will go a long way towards the Bulldogs winning this game.
I believe that Georgia blows out the Commodores in this one. 14 ½ points are an awful lot to give up in an SEC game but Georgia shouldn’t have any trouble handing Vanderbilt their second straight loss of the season.
