It was an early game on Saturday, but the ‘Dores came out awake and ready to defeat the Nevada Wolfpack. After a few offensive miscues in the red zone, Vanderbilt won the game handily 41-10.
Led by Senior Kyle Shurmur and Junior Kalija Lipscomb, the Vanderbilt offense went for 468 yards and 36 minutes of possession to the Wolfpack’s 23.
The offense moved down the field in each possession during the first half, but they failed to convert touchdowns twice. The first attempt was a series of two plays from under center resulting in a net of three yards gained and then a fumble by Chris Pierce, who was hit with a questionable (it was) targeting call, causing him to fumble.
