If Vanderbilt wins out against Auburn, Kentucky and Tennessee they still have a very good chance of making the playoffs. But regardless, it's been an extraordinarily good season. The coach is great. The recruiting is going to be outstanding going forward. The stadium is finally finished. Vandy has been the doormat in the SEC since forever. Two years ago, a ranked Vanderbilt in November was completely implausible. But here we are. And it seems likely that Vanderbilt will be able to compete with the Notre Dames and Michigans in the years ahead. This is all very new for Vanderbilt. So it's a lot of fun.

That is not the vibe there in any way. Maybe 20 years ago.

do share your “interests” - or here’s a novel thought- ask your kid! The striver mom directing all her “kiddo’s” decisions. Barf..
That’s my kid’s reaction. No interest in going to a red state where the girls dress up for football games.
Are the kids rich and entitled at Vandy? Preppy? Curious. Weighing that with too state school with a wide range of kids
its not a school for nerdy kids.

Vandy is still ranked at 20. Alabama moved up to 8. This is what's called a "quality loss" in college football. Vandy's next game is against LSU. The rest of the schedule is all SEC schools so we shall see how legit they are. Pavia had a terrible game yesterday. Not winning anything with a fumble and a couple of interceptions.
But meanwhile, Texas and Penn State dropped out of the top 20 entirely.
This is still all very exciting for Vandy fans. A little humility is probably a good thing. Last year it was very exciting to both beat Alabama and make a Bowl game. And a Bowl will happen again this year with just one more win. But Vandy has shot up so high and so quickly under the new coach that people have their sights on the playoffs, which if you've followed Vanderbilt football for more than two years, is the most ridiculous thing ever. So it's still fun.
