Few of the Crimson Tide players will know or care about the history between the two teams. Vandy coach, Jerry Stackhouse is certain to have told his team the Tide is very beatable in Nashville.

Though the Crimson Tide is the better team this season, it has lost as the better team, many times before in Nashville. The games are rarely one-sided, with single digits usually separating the winner from the loser.

Alabama vs. Vanderbilt Prediction

Earlier in the week, Nate Oats said any of his players not playing hard on defense would be benched. An immediate question came to mind. Coach, what took you so long?

Predicting how hard or how smart the Crimson Tide will play for 40 minutes is ‘fools-gold.’ Some Crimson Tide advantages are, in SEC play, Vandy is near the bottom of the league in free-throw shooting, rebounding, blocks and assists. They are one of the leagues’ best at shooting and defending threes.
