Vanderbilt got its second win of the season last Saturday, 30-28 over UConn, in one of the most beautiful displays of football any of us have ever witnessed.
This week’s opponent will be slightly more difficult than UConn. The Florida Gators come into Saturday’s game with a 3-2 record, sure, but those two losses were to Alabama (by two points) and Kentucky (after failing to convert a 4th and goal to tie the game in the last minute.) The Gators are 1-2 in the SEC, with a 38-14 win over Tennessee being the lone triumph, but they’re a 39-point favorite over our Commodores.
