Vanderbilt Commodores vs Missouri Tigers Predictions 1/7/2023

The Tigers, who are 12-2 overall, recently completed one of the toughest stretches in NCAA basketball, which included games against Kansas, UCF, Illinois, Kentucky, and Arkansas.

In those contests, Missouri went 3-2 while losing to the Jayhawks and the Razorbacks. When playing Arkansas, Mizzou had a 34-27 halftime lead but was unable to hold onto it, giving up 47 points in the second half.

The Tigers had a lead of up to 17 points but failed to deliver when it counted. When Missouri was outrebounded 40-23 and shot 6-for-19 from beyond the arc (31.6%), 17 second-chance points resulted.

The Tigers average 50.7 percent from the field, which is the fifth-highest shooting percentage in the nation, and score 87.3 points a game, fourth-most in the nation.

In addition, Missouri’s free-throw percentage (74.4%) and three-point percentage (36.9%) also place it in the top 70. The Tigers’ opponents average 32.4 boards every game, while the Tigers only grab 29.5 on average.

The Missouri Tigers are 4-1 ATS in their previous 5 matchups.
The total went OVER in 6 of Missouri’s last 8 matches.
The Tigers are 12-2 SU in their last 14 matches.

Vanderbilt Commodores vs #20 Missouri Tigers. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #20 Missouri Tigers. In terms of schedule-modified defensive efficiency, Arkansas is fifth, and they played well against the potent Mizzou offense.

The Commodores will not succeed as well, especially while playing Missouri’s top scorers, Brown and Hodge. At home, the pair will recover and contribute to the Tigers’ top-five scoring offense.

When playing its own brand of basketball, Vanderbilt is a strong team, but we can’t expect the bench to score as many points as it did against South Carolina in the previous game (64 points).

With the high-scoring Tigers, the Commodores (ranked 98th in offensive efficiency rating) will have a difficult time keeping up. The #20 Missouri Tigers will win to a predicted score of 80-72.
