First look: Vanderbilt at Alabama odds and lines

Looking at Saturday’s Vanderbilt at Alabama college football odds, lines and trends. Here’s what you need to know.

The Vanderbilt Commodores (3-1) travel to Bryant-Denny Stadium to take on the Alabama Crimson Tide (3-0) Saturday at 7:30 p.m. ET (SEC Network). Below, we look at Vanderbilt vs. Alabama odds from Tipico Sportsbook; check back for all our college football picks and predictions.

Despite a scare at Texas 2 weeks ago, the Crimson Tide come into this game as the heavy favorite.

Alabama still has the 2 best players in college football in QB Bryce Young and LB Will Anderson Jr. With this duo as well as RB Jahmyr Gibbs, this game will get out of hand early.

Vanderbilt has already beaten their season projected total of 2.5 wins. They did this with a victory on Saturday against Northern Illinois. No matter what happens the rest of the way, this season has been a step forward for coach Clark Lee and the Commodores. This rest of the season for Vanderbilt will be tough in SEC play and it starts this week on the road against 1 of the best in the country.

Alabama is No. 2 in the AFCA Coaches Poll powered by USA TODAY Sports.
