Around the SEC: Week One

Yes. There were more Western Kentucky fans at Vandy than Vandy fans.

SEC East Loser:

Vanderbilt:

As mentioned earlier, Vanderbilt was the only SEC team to lose in week one. Although it wasn’t for a lack of weak competition, the Commodores actually lost a game to Western Kentucky at home 14-12.

It was a pretty pathetic showing, something we’ve come to expect over the last calendar year from Vandy.

This game was 3-0 at the half with Vandy actually leading! They gave up two touchdowns while adding a field goal in between to make it 14-6. The Dores were able to score with 33 seconds left but of course they weren’t able to convert the two point conversion and thus lost at home to a team known as the Hilltoppers.

Serious question, is the Derek Mason hiring one of the worst in the history of the SEC? So far you’d have to say yes.
