Texas A&M vs Tennessee College Basketball Betting Preview
The Tennessee Volunteers, led by Santiago Vescovi and freshman star Kennedy Chandler, come into this conference game off of a one-point loss against Texas. They’re 5-3 in January and looking to keep that pace going in February, with a month until the NCAA tournament. They are a very balanced group that should contain A&M and force them to feel uncomfortable. They play this game at home, in which they are 11-0, implying that they should win. There is no easy win in the SEC, but here is one that both teams desperately want and need.
Meanwhile, the Texas A&M Aggies are coming off a devastating loss to South Carolina (13-7, 4-4 SEC), and have lost 4 straight games. The Aggies are sputtering and badly need this win to revive their NCAA tournament hopes, but they’ll need to lean on Henry Coleman and Marcus Williams to do it. Quenton Jackson off the bench is also key for them, averaging 12.9 points per game. We’ll see what kind of play we’ll see from this team and if A&M can pick up a trademark win along the way. You can watch this one on the SEC Network at 7 pm ET.

Prediction Texas A&M vs Tennessee | College Basketball Betting Picks
Tennessee is by far the better team, as shown on paper and in the standings report. Tennessee also has a great defense to stop A&M. Yes, Kentucky put up 107 on that defense, but other than that, no team has ever touched 80 points on them. If A&M can start early and Quenton produces off the bench, A&M can pick up a trademark win, but they’re babbling and unconfident. The Vols should take care of business, but I’m not expecting a beating.
Our Texas A&M vs Tennessee college basketball betting prediction tonight will be Texas A&M +11.5 at BetOnline.
