Re: Vandy-Alabama A&M thread
Not enough confidence to call a TO on 3rd and 11 - losing 30 seconds. On the other hand, we won’t face a better FCS team than A&M this season.

Re: waking up 1-0
To further the astute Roanoke’s point, showing blitz with a 9ish yard cushion may be about the worst way to try defend the run-and-shoot. A well executed R&S can be hard to stop regardless unless the defenses has superior talent - and our talent advantage appeared small except for Mr. Wright. IM...

Re: OT: The FCS Kickoff Classic..
A few degrees above average today, but the odds of anything other than brutal heat and/or a severe thunderstorm on an August afternoon in Montgomery are pretty small. This is year 4 or 5 of this I think. Worse idea than bowl games in Boise or Fenway Park.

Re: Modeling the 2023 uniforms
All in all, a good look. And I like that the pants are closer to the “old gold” vs. whatever “Vegas gold” is. Agree with others this should be the main home combo. I still think we want a gold shirt option for those midday September games.

Re: So who is everyone pulling for.....
I’m I Wake dad, so definitely the Deacs. Buy even if I weren’t, I’d pull for the somewhat Vanderbilt-esque school against the big state powerhouses.

Re: Morehead State just deleted #1 seed Clemson
IMO, Clemson was one team that had a bigger gripe than us. They were the 4 seed in the ACC and whipped NC State decisively TWCE late in the season, including once in Raleigh. Yet NC State got in and Clemson got the finger. Story is very similar- mediocre to bad play in December (including a loss to ...

Re: Point to ponder
At least from an SEC standpoint, did the last two weeks matter AT ALL? Looks like the selected teams and seedings were chosen about two weeks ago and only an otherwise out conference champion would have changed that. I honestly don’t think beating A&M yesterday would have mattered. Bracket looks...

Re: Thoughts on Vandy's loss to Tennessee
I gave up before Swann came in so I didn’t see the hit. I do hope he’s OK. But putting him in down 35-0 to get knocked around when we have an healthy experienced gunslinger on the bench may have been the worst of the bad coaching calls last night.

Re: OT: Why does the Egg Bowl
IIRC, Texas and A&M used to play frequently on Thanksgiving. It’s mainly an NFL day, but I do like the two days of CFB that follow.

Re: Gators hate cold weather
It was a bit chilly when the wind hit or the sun slipped behind the clouds, but it wasn’t that cold. Still, I noticed several UF players dressed in layers while our guys were almost all in shirt sleeves. I think the chill in the air annoyed some of the UF players resulting in a slight loss of focus ...

Re: nice to have a home win
I'll bite as my wife and I did make it up to First Bank yesterday. After joining the VU community as a student in '83, I can finally strike watching Vanderbilt beat Florida in person off my life's wish list. While I did not expect VU to pull it out, I had optimistic expectations of a competitive gam...

Re: OT: SEC Championship Game is meaningless
Conference championships need to either become part of the eventual expanded playoff or die when it comes to fruition. Just too many games.

Re: 6:30 pm CT kickoff, SEC Network for Vandy-South Carolina
To Auric’s point, best shot would be against a reeling Florida team on a chilly late Nov night.
