Vanderbilt, yes Vanderbilt, has a shot to make the College Football Playoff. It’s hard to believe, but it’s a possibility if they can finish the season with consecutive wins off a bye week.
A rivalry game in Knoxville against Tennessee awaits. But first, they’ve got to face a Kentucky team that’s on a three-game winning streak.
Vanderbilt head coach Clark Lea is not overlooking the Wildcats. In fact, he’s always admired Mark Stoops and previously shared at SEC Media Days that he modeled his program’s rebuild after Kentucky. Even though it wasn’t always pretty for the Wildcats, they’re playing their best football in November.
