Tennessee football: 5 Vanderbilt Commodores to watch vs. Vols

The Vanderbilt Commodores have beaten Tennessee football each of the last two years, and they have a few key players on the team that were part of both victories. Now, they’re going to try to make it three in a row for the first time since Robert Neyland took over the Vols.

With a bowl game on the line for both teams, that gives UT two reasons to desperately want to avoid losing in Nashville Saturday under first-year head coach Jeremy Pruitt. Coming off a 50-17 loss to the Missouri Tigers, however, that could be a tougher task than we thought it would be.
