First meeting.
Comments
The Commodores created quite a mini-stir in the SEC by rallying to a win at Colorado State. On Saturday, Vandy faces its second straight western team in Stanford. I think Vandy will give the Cardinal a good fight but they are not yet up to snuff enough to an average power 5 conference team. A Vanderbilt win could happen but it is more likely not to happen.
