Vanderbilt football turns the page after last week’s upset win over Alabama by traveling to face Kentucky on Saturday inside Kroger Field.
The Commodores earned the biggest win in program history against the Crimson Tide last Saturday in a game that shook the college football world. Diego Pavia and Clark Lea have been under the spotlight this week after the sterling performance.
Kentucky was off last week after the Sept. 28 upset win at Ole Miss. The Wildcats had a topsy-turvy first month of the season and now has a manageable October with games against Vandy, Florida and Auburn.
