Lessons in Vanderbilt Football: Missourah

Vanderbilt football has now put their backs to the wall if they want to go to a bowl game. In a matter of one quarter, the Commodores went from looking at getting to 5-5 to falling to 4-6. The game swung the wrong way on a goal-line stand by the Yankee Tigers that was aided by some very vanilla play calling. A potential 35-26 lead then became a 33-28 deficit after Missourah’s ensuing drive went 99 yards for a TD. It was a bitterly painful and oh-so-Vanderbilt way to lose. Is there a chance to repeat 2016’s finish, or is this season sinking and hopefully taking Mason’s tenure with it?
