Brent Pry is solid. I enjoyed his post game interview.

He needs to learn how to raise money

VT just didn't have much talent.

#NIL

He needed that and he got it. If we get to 12M NIL, this could be fun.

If you get B10 Network, flip over to it. (at least during breaks in the TAMU game). Idaho giving Oregon a scare and are playing with their hair on fire.

That’s finding a way to win instead of lose, and a reason to be excited @InGold .

I haven’t read a single word on here so apologies if this is reiterative, but I watched the entire game.

- Pavia is such a gamer. Dinardo used to always preach in a close game, there needed to be a person who would just want it more than the person lined up against them, and they would step up in win it. That’s Pavia to me. He has good vision and feel but I think he plays above his talent. Which is 💯 fine by me.

2. Skinner and Alexander look like they belong.

3. Our special teams should be a net plus for us this year even in the SEC

4. We beat them in play calling (which is what I focused on much more than players) on both sides of the ball.

The neutrals

- I thought Va Tech called an absolutely horrible game. Their playbook offensively was unimaginative, limited and predictable. And as much as we all want Marve to succeed after this game, he was horrible at adapting to Pavia. He spied him too late, with the wrong player and when that didn’t work he just kept blitzing for the strong side of the field. It got so predictable VU would just roll to the other side it was so obvious.

- I never thought of this (or any game) as “must win.” We have a long season and the key to me is to win 1-2 in the SEC. If there’s a must — it’s to show we can be competitive in a league that is vastly more athletic than the SEC

Great win!

😀

I don't think we had much more than that the entire year last year.

Great job guys!

We got ahead. Blew the lead. Came back and won. Had players step up and make big plays. Being able to do this comes from confidence, in yourself and your teammates.

And, it reminds me somewhat of the 2011 game against UConn. No one knew what we had in Franklin's second game, we were so used to losing. That team should have lost that UConn game. Most Vanderbilt teams in my life would have lost that game. But, they didn't. They had something called confidence, and it started the first of three straight bowl games.

This game had a similar feel. We blew the lead. It felt like we blew the game, but, we didn't.

Pavia made plays. Defenders made plays. And, we came back and won.

Now, I'm not predicting three straight bowl games. But, as long as this offensive staff and strength coach stays here, Saturdays aren't going to be guaranteed losses either.

It was a great day, a big win. Enjoy it, Commodore family, we damn sure deserve it.

Anchor Down!

Klenakis and STINER deserve props

No other way to describe him. He isn’t the most talented but when the lights come on, he balls out.

I heard in two different places that they were turning students away. Got to be kidding me…

You can never miss another game now that you attended live and we won. You're our good luck charm.

This one is for the older alums. Vanderbilt has reported that KC Potter has passed away. I showed up on campus as a Freshman almost exactly 49 years ago and KC Potter was Dean of Student Life and really the face of the administration to most students. A really good guy who enjoyed spending time with students. I didn’t realize until now how young he was back then.

Lea is Deuce 2.0.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory once again.

Good thing Lea is coaching the defense so we don't have anymore uncovered receivers running through our secondary. Oh, wait, nevermind.....🤣🤣🤣

When they let him throw

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Him and DeRickey got into it on the sidelines after a Tech TD. They had to be separated. Taylor was then escorted to the locker room by Harding Harper. Does anyone know why he was taken out of the game? I watched the whole thing and it just seemed like passionate teammates going at it.

We absolutely need Taylor.

WHAT CAN HE BE AT THIS LEVEL?
It’s a compliment to Beck and Kill trusting them to recruit them
“People won me but it was never Power 5”
I think I’m the best player in the country and want to show it

MOTIVATION
Some people said I’m a poor man’s Trace McSorley
I’m here to play my game
Stop me and then you can talk
We have great players, OL did great

STUDENT SECTION CHANTS HIS NAME
He’s never been in a home stadium when there are more opposing fans
And sometimes he can’t hear the cadence
Appreciates those who did support them
They take all they can
They’re here to win games

LAST DRIVE
Told the O line they’re running to win
Asked Beck to put the ball in his hands
Beck asked him what he wanted to run
OL did a great job
Alexander, Sherrill, Skinner get shout-outs

PLAY TO STOWERS WHERE THEY LOOKED OFF
Miscommunication
Clean that up in film

THE UPHILL CLIMB AT VANDY
Coach Lea gets emotional when he talks about his team
I want to do it for him, he cares a lot
He’s got competition in the room
If he messes up he’d getting replaced


He’s got to get better
Means a lot that Lea trusts him
Lea is his biggest fan

THE TD PASS TO ALEXANDER
Corner ran with the post
Trie to get the LB to come down on him
Got it to Seddy and he did the rest

NOT TURNING IT OVER
It was big
Last two games at New Mexico State, he turned it over 7 times
He knew that was the biggest thing for them to win
He’s improved his throwing and that’s helpled


PEOPLE DOUBTED HIM, DID HE SHOW IT?
People still doubt me but I want to play in the NFL



HOW WELL DOES THE SYSTEM FIT HIM?
They have a fun offense. Weapons to have a fun offense
Stowers, 4 TE who can go in and play at one time
They’ll be electric on offense

AFTER THE MISSED FG, WHAT’S THE APPROACH?
I thought to myself this is God’s plan. What better way to put in in my hands and give me a chance
Mentioned chip on his shoulder
Zero offers out of high school
