[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The No. 6 Texas Longhorns (6-1, 2-1 SEC) visit the No. 25 Vanderbilt Commodores (5-2, 2-1) Saturday. Kickoff from FirstBank Stadium in Nashville is at 4:15 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Below, we look at Texas vs. Vanderbilt odds from BetMGM Sportsbook’s college football odds before making our expert college football picks and predictions later in the week.

The Longhorns were No. 1 in the US LBM Coaches Poll but lost at home Saturday to the then-No. 4 Georgia Bulldogs 30-15 — Texas was a 4-point favorite and the Under (57) cashed. The Texas defense picked off Georgia QB Carson Beck 3 times but allowed RB Trevor Etienne to score 3 times, while the Bulldogs held the Longhorns to only 29 rushing yards. The win catapulted Georgia to No. 2 in the latest Coaches Poll and Texas dropped 5 spots to No. 6 — Oregon is the new No. 1.

Sunday’s new poll release has the Commodores at No. 25, their first Top 25 ranking since 2014. Vanderbilt is riding a 3-game winning streak, coming off a 24-14 non-conference home victory Saturday vs. Ball State. However, Vandy had to score 10 points in the 4th quarter to break a 14-all tie and it didn’t cover as a 27.5-point favorite with the Under (57) hitting. The first W of the streak was the 40-35 upset of visiting Alabama, which was No. 2 in the Coaches Poll and No. 1 in the AP Top 25 at the time — and Vandy was a 23-point dog.
