Projected seed: 10

Vanderbilt’s season has been a mixed bag; they've secured some valuable wins, like their close victory against Tennessee and a solid win over TCU, showcasing their ability to compete with strong opponents. However, they've also suffered key losses, particularly to teams like Mississippi State and Alabama, which highlight defensive vulnerabilities. Their offensive performance has been promising, but the inconsistency in defense—especially evident in the loss against Alabama, where they allowed over 100 points—could jeopardize their standing. Upcoming games against Missouri and Texas A&M are crucial, as winning these could significantly enhance their resume, while losses would further complicate their chances for the tournament.
