BEST ON BEST: How will Kentucky football stop the Vanderbilt rushing offense

Hot off the heels of a major upset over, at the time, No. 1 Alabama, the Vanderbilt Commodores are traveling to Lexington with confidence on Saturday.

Vandy’s high scoring offense is led by New Mexico State transfer quarterback Diego Pavia, who moves the chains both through the air and on the ground.

The dual threat QB is the team’s leading rusher with 338 yards on 91 carries for two touchdowns, a stat line defensive coordinator Brad White has heard all week long.

“He’s so savvy and he’s got so much moxie, so much toughness to him,” White said on Wednesday.
