Stream of Consciousness Final Thoughts on the 2021 Football Season

By tradition that started in (I think) 2018, when the season is over, it’s time for me to write my final thoughts in stream of consciousness form, where I just write down the thoughts as they come to me.

  • I’m not sure I’ve ever been more ready for a Vanderbilt season to be over (whether football or men’s basketball, the two sports I really cover for Anchor of Gold) than I was this season. And that’s not really a reflection on the coaching staff or any of the players on the team. This team was just bad, but it wasn’t bad in an “I can’t possibly look away from this train wreck” kind of way like the 2018-19 basketball team, where your morbid curiosity just wanted to see how bad things could get.
