After taking their first loss of the season at Wake Forest last week, Vanderbilt goes on the road for the second week in a row, traveling to Las Vegas where they’ll face UNLV at 6 PM on Saturday.
The last (and only other) time Vanderbilt played UNLV, it was a 34-10 beatdown at the hands of the Rebels in Nashville. That was the beginning of the end for Derek Mason, though he for some reason coached another season.
Also, this game is likely to be indoors at the retractable-roofed Allegiant Stadium, which would mark Vanderbilt’s first indoor football game since the 2018 Texas Bowl.
