  "account": "Vanderbilt is currently 2-0, but their recent performances have been lackluster. After a blowout win over Austin Peay and a close loss to Delaware, they face NC State in an upcoming match. NC State, however, has struggled as well, losing 34-8 to Virginia in their first game. Vanderbilt's quarterback Jared Curtis has the opportunity to secure his first career win this Saturday. According to the writers, the game is expected to be low-scoring with Vanderbilt likely emerging victorious with a score of 23-20. Additionally, The War Tigers are suggested as a likely upset pick, with Mississippi State (+4) to play South Carolina being the SEC Upset Pick of the Week.",
