COMMENTS

Vandy looked good their first couple of games beating a power conference team and stomping an FBS school. However, the Commodores slept-walked and played sloppy against Georgia State. Which version of Vandy will appear in Columbia? We think a more awake team but they are playing a very strong Mizzou team.
