Final odds and prediction for Alabama vs. Vanderbilt

Final odds and prediction for Alabama vs. Vanderbilt

The Alabama Crimson Tide enter Week 6 at a perfect 4-0 and pulled off one of the most impressive wins of the season in college football last week. They are preparing for their first SEC road game of the season and the Kalen DeBoer era in Nashville.

Alabama will be without starting WR Kendrick Law, who suffered an injury in last week's game and was officially sidelined Friday night.

Alabama will look to avoid an obvious trap game against the Commodores. Vanderbilt enters the game at 2-2 and appears to be a much better football team compared to last season. The 'Dores already have a big win at FirstBank Stadium, defeating Virginia Tech in the season opener. Two weeks ago they took Missouri to the brink before losing in overtime at Columbia.

Alabama opened the week as a 24-point favorite over Vanderbilt, but that limit has dropped to 22.5 as kickoff approaches.

It will be interesting to see how a DeBoer-coached Alabama handles the success after last week. The Tide will face complacency for the first time in 2024 after rising to No. 1 in the AP poll.

I wouldn't be surprised if the offense got off to a sloppy start, but over time, as is common in college football, the talent will prevail and overwhelm.

Vanderbilt will stick around longer than most expect, but Alabama will put Clark Lea's team to bed late in the third quarter.
