Saturday Predictions: South Carolina at Vanderbilt

The Vanderbilt Commodores, 0-2 on the season, welcome to Nashville the South Carolina Gamecocks, also 0-2 on the season. The more relevant number is 11, the number of consecutive losses that Vanderbilt has endured against South Carolina, one of the most random long losing streaks you could imagine.
