The Commodores have covered in three straight games and six of their last seven. They were 1-1 against the spread in the two losses to Kentucky this year, falling by an average of 9.5 points.

They say it’s difficult to defeat a team three times. That is not the case always the case for the Wildcats. Kentucky is 33-10 (.767) all-time in the SEC Tournament against teams they defeated twice during the regular season. However, UK is just 4-4 in such games since 2006. John Calipari is 0-2 against Vandy in the SEC Tournament. Vanderbilt has five SEC Tourney wins over UK and in four of them, the Wildcats had already earned two regular season wins over the Commodores.

Go Cats. Beat Vandy.
