So, let’s get one thing straight: The Vanderbilt Commodores have never lost to an FCS team, and we’d like to keep it that way.

Vanderbilt joins in the SoCon Saturday festivities with the East Tennessee State Buccaneers visiting Vanderbilt Stadium this afternoon. ETSU is 3-8 and last place in the Southern Conference with a 1-7 record, but they did beat Austin Peay earlier this season and Mercer last week. The talent gap between the two teams is such that Vanderbilt should beat ETSU easily if both teams play to their talent level, but this is one team’s Super Bowl and the other team is... probably wishing this season were over.

I don’t know man. If we just have fun and expect to win we should win this game. Anchor Down.
