What Vandy team was that last night?

Where was the total incompetence we have seen all year? We used 2 QBs and both looked serviceable at worst. Mistakes were kept to an acceptable level. We were able to throw the ball with some effectiveness. KO returns were the best effort (not just that we scored) we've had in years. Sadly, squib kicks seem to be an Achilles heel, even with the caveat Fry got some crazy bounces. The defense was...well, bipolar. It was not terrible though.

Best of all, there were no major coaching gaffs. The pick 6 play call was a bit aggressive. That 2 minute drill in general seemed clumsy, but we did have a backup true freshman QB in so not unexpected or damning. I would have gone for it when we took the 20 something yard fg in 4th, but that's just a debate not a mistake so much. The play calling was much better offensively.

I'm not happy we lost. It was frustrating from a result standpoint. From a development perspective, that might be the most improvement from week to week for a Vandy team. We scraped by a 120+ ranked team then competed fiercely with a top 15 team (even if they weren't quite at their best).
