Clark Lea got his first win as Vanderbilt’s head coach. The Commodores won in a way they historically have not by coming back from down 14-0 near the end of the 2nd quarter then surviving a late, tying TD by Colorado State with a game-winning FG with only 19 seconds left to play. Vanderbilt fans know both situations normally spell disaster. The game typically ends up out of hand, or the late tie deflates the team on the way to a loss. Colorado State is not a quality opponent, and they did a lot of things to put the game in Vanderbilt’s hands.
