Serious question. They got blown out by an FCS team.

They are the Bishop Sycamore of SEC football

Vandy uses athletics to fund the school...

I guess we should be pleased with that

No, Nashville is a great road trip.

You’ll appreciate the Commodores when you get a full SEC conference schedule and they’re on it.

I think so. They hurt our SoS. I'm sure the Texas law school could find a loophole that would male evicting them legal.

They should see if they can schedule Texas every week.

James Franklin legit worked miracles there. Would have been awesome had he stayed.

Why would they?

They have as many offensive touchdowns as National champion contender UGA.

SoS doesn’t matter anymore. SoC has replaced it. Strength of conference.

Jeez. Were we this ignorant when we got here?

Wasn’t that long ago that James Franklin took them to bowl games in 3 straight seasons before leaving.

You’re not even here yet, but you want the place to start changing, beginning with dropping a charter member.

Yup. James Franklin was a miracle worker. And looking back on it now, how Derek Mason beat UT three years in a row simply defies all logic.

Chill out. They still have UT on their schedule.

Chad Morris lost to like 4 FCS teams in 2 years. Bert got super close with coastal one year too.

It really shows just how far UT had dropped more than Vandy improved.

Pretty sure they have. Seemed clear when they trotted out the chick last year.

Vandy needs to commit to football and the SEC needs to force that issue. They will be receiving the same $100M check from the SEC/SECN/ESPN that everyone else gets. They need to use it or get out.

The only difference between Vandy and Texas is..

Vandy actually belongs in the SEC

Well that debacle with the female kicker really went a long way in showing that their top priority as an AD is virtue signaling and not winning games

They have been a doormat most of their history and have resigned themselves to being a doormat for the rest of time.

Any team that would put a girl on an SEC football field has no business in this league. Their priorities obviously lie somewhere other than being a competitive team.
