Alabama football goalposts are never dumped into the Black Warrior River, but Vanderbilt fans can't be blamed for dumping one in the Cumberland last season.
For those who love a good underdog story, how can you not have a fondness for the Vanderbilt football program?

But beating an Alabama football team was epic for the Commodores.
Long ago, Vanderbilt had a strong football program - very long ago.
