Commodores and Bulldogs do battle is SEC Tournament semifinals
NCAA Basketball Betting Lines
03/13/2010 -
Nashville, TN (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Mississippi State Bulldogs and the 20th-
ranked Vanderbilt Commodores are set to collide in the semifinal round of the
2010 SEC Tournament.
Tomorrow, the winner of this contest will take on either Kentucky or Tennessee
for the championship.
The Commodores struggled early against Georgia in yesterday's quarterfinal
game, but the team proved superior in the second half and knocked off the
Bulldogs by a 78-66 final. Vanderbilt, the second seed from the East Division,
earned its lone SEC Tournament title way back in 1951, by far the longest
drought of any of the teams that have won the crown. The Commodores are 30-47
in this event, but this year's team is one of the best in recent memory. Vandy
is 24-7 overall and went 12-4 in conference during the regular season.
Mississippi State, the top seed from the West Conference, knocked off Florida
yesterday by a 75-69 final in the quarterfinal round. Considering the fact
that the club closed out the regular season with back-to-back losses, fans of
the Bulldogs were happy to see the solid performance against the Gators.
MSU, which is 22-10 overall, is the defending champion of this event, as it
defeated Tennessee in a 64-61 final in the 2009 title game, and the program
has three SEC crowns to its credit. Still, the 26-46 record at this event is
poor.
Vanderbilt won its only regular-season meeting with Mississippi State, 75-72,
and the Commodores own a 72-43 advantage in the all-time series.
Yesterday, Vanderbilt earned a 43-32 rebounding advantage over Georgia and
limited the Bulldogs to 3-of-16 shooting from three-point range, two obvious
keys to victory. The Commodores shot an impressive 9-of-18 from three-point
range and got solid contributions from several individuals. John Jenkins, a
freshman guard, was sensational for Vanderbilt, as he poured in a career-high
25 points on the strength of a 5-of-8 effort from three-point range. Jenkins
took the game over in the second stanza, scoring 22 of his points over the
final 20 minutes. Jermaine Beal tallied 16 points and six assists, while A.J.
Ogilvy registered 10 points. Andre Walker only scored six points, but he did
grab 10 rebounds for Vandy. The Commodores are scoring 78.1 ppg while allowing
69.2 ppg to foes. Beal leads the well-balanced club with 14.8 ppg, and Ogilvy
checks in with 13.8 ppg and 6.3 rpg. Jeffery Taylor (13.5 ppg) and Jenkins
(11.0 ppg) are both talented scorers.
Barry Stewart scored 17 points to lead the Bulldogs to the six-point victory
over Florida in the quarterfinal round. Jarvis Varnado added 15 points for
Mississippi State, while Ravern Johnson tallied 12 points. Both Dee Bost and
Kodi Augustus posted 10 points apiece for the Bulldogs, and the balanced
scoring was key to the victory. Mississippi State opened the game with a 10-0
run and led 39-28 at intermission. The squad led by as many 19 points in the
second half, but Florida ripped off 14 unanswered points and made the game
much closer than it should have been. MSU tied an SEC Tournament record by
hitting 10 three-pointers in the contest, as the club finished 10-of-20 from
behind the arc. While the Bulldogs suffered a 32-20 rebounding disadvantage in
the tilt, they were able to knock down 57.1 percent of their field goal
attempts on the night. Overall this season, MSU is scoring 72.8 ppg while
limiting opponents to 64.5 ppg. Both Johnson and Varnado entered this
tournament averaging 13.5 ppg, but Varnado has gotten most of the attention,
especially considering the fact that he recently became the NCAA's all-time
leader in blocked shots.

With the field of 64/65 set, MySportsbook.com has the Florida Gators as the 4-1 favorite to successfully defend their National Championship. Men’s Division-1 College Basketball has not seen a team repeat as National Champions since Duke won back to back championships in ’91 & ‘92. After losing three out of four late in the season, the Gators are full of momentum as they won their last four games by an average of 18 points. Not surprisingly, right behind the Gators are the other three top seeds: Kansas 5-1, UNC 6-1, and Ohio State 7-1. Many consider Kansas to be the hottest team in the country, having won 11 straight. With Kansas, it is hard to ignore all of the early exits from the “dance” in recent years. With an impressive ACC Tournament, UNC ensured themselves the other top seed. UNC has about as much talent as any other team in the tournament but with a team that’s best players are primarily freshman and sophomores, could youth be a concern. Behind freshman sensation, Greg Oden, OSU will look to do what their football team failed to do just a few months earlier. OSU seems to have peeked at the right time, as they currently have a 17 game winning streak. Since the tournament field was expanded in 1985, there has never been an instance where all four #1 seeds advanced to the Final Four. It is obvious that each of the top seeds have the talent to make it through to Atlanta. But as everyone knows, when makes the NCAA Tournament so special are all of the spoilers and “Cinderella” stories that knock off the favorites on a daily basis.
