Dick's SEC Previews- Vandy 24'
By: Richard Johnston
VANDERBILT CUMMODORES
At long last, I got off my a** and I am coming through on the promised deliverables to you, the good people of the burnerverse. Granted the poll that I ran was kind of a joke, but the egg is really on me since I’m forced to provide a write up on VANDERBILT. Anchor down or whatever.
Which team should get the honor of the first write up?

(Don’t worry State fans, I’ll make sure to have a real nice unbiased write up soon for you)
OFFENSE
Auburn fans plug your ears; Diego Pavia is in black and gold and will be taking snaps for Vandy this fall. Along with the gritty quarterback, four other New Mexico State Aggie players all have transitioned to the country music capital for this season. The offensive minds of Tim Beck and Jerry Kill also join the Commodore staff after defecting from that same Aggie team.
I would expect the dores’ offense to be very similar to what we saw Kill and Beck run last season. A lot of RPO’s and just rely on Pavia to make the right read each time. From what I’ve read the offensive line was horrid last year and there might not be a lot of hope for improvement.
DEFENSE
The Dores return a good bit on defense but that’s a defense that allowed 36.17 points a game and 454.92 yards a game. Should we trust them to do any better? Probably not. Clark Lea might be on the way out at years end.
