Is it the Friday before a football game? Then it’s time for the Death Rabbits to make their first appearance of the season.
(Am I using an Alabama helmet even though we’re playing Hawaii? Yes, yes, the guy who photoshopped the helmets onto the Death Rabbits hasn’t worked here for years.)
Vanderbilt opens its 2023 season by hosting Hawaii in the newly end zone seating-free FirstBank Stadium, whose effects on seating capacity will be complained about when a few SEC schools come to The Bank later this season, but as for this week it probably won’t affect the crowd either way.
