Vanderbilt vs. South Carolina: Picks
The Vanderbilt Commodores have been an average offensive team when passing the football. They rank 62nd in the nation averaging 235.2 passing yards per game.
Sophomore quarterback AJ Swann has been doing a subpar job under center as he is 93-of-173 (53.8 completion percentage) for 1,290 yards with 11 touchdowns to seven interceptions. He has over 250 passing yards in three of his last five games, so expect to see him surpass that number once again here.
The South Carolina Gamecocks are one of the most dominant passing attacks in college football, ranking 17th with 296.2 passing yards per game.
Senior quarterback Spencer Rattler has been playing very well under center as he is 212-of-304 (69.7 completion percentage) for 2,516 yards with 14 touchdowns to six interceptions. With seven touchdown passes in his previous four games, do not be afraid of taking the over on his touchdown passes in this game.
