It worked for Tommy Castellanos and Florida State, so Diego Pavia is hoping that it'll work for Vanderbilt, too.

The Commodores' cocky QB just poked the bear and called his shot against Alabama. After leading Vanderbilt to an upset win over Alabama in Nashville a season ago, Pavia believes his team is ready to do it again, this time in Tuscaloosa.

In an interview with On3's Chris Low, Pavia provided Alabama with bulletin board material, as if the Crimson Tide needed any extra motivation outside of avenging last season's disappointing defeat.
