Vanderbilt is back in The Associated Press women’s basketball Top 25 for the first time since 2014, ranked No. 23 this week.

It is an SEC battle as we continue our College Basketball odds series with a South Carolina-Vanderbilt prediction and pick.

South Carolina out-rebounded Vanderbilt by 12, the third-largest margin of the season. That has been USC’s biggest struggle this year, ranking 11th in the SEC in rebounding margin. USC was out-rebounded in the first two SEC games, before edging Auburn in that area.
