He's not a QB, why did he slide? He had the first down if he lowered his shoulder.

SOFT!!

Enter your pre-, in- and post-game thoughts here.

I will be watching from Nashville. If you happen to be in Hawaii and want to post updates in this thread during pregame warmups of who's out/limited, etc., that would be appreciated.

They showed this video. I think it's well done, especially given our lack of success for most of these 100 years

Anybody else unable to access ticket site to download or transfer tickets?

Looks pretty pitiful 10 minutes before kickoff.

I was watching SEC Nation, and it showed the press box side of the stadium behind Jordan Rodgers, and it looked like maybe 1,000 people in camera view. Yikes.

Does anyone have a parking pass that they aren’t using today? Thanks in advance

Here's a link to an inspiring story about Vandy senior, Connor Bosse, one of Vandy's assistant equipment managers for the football team. He's an amazing young man from a great family, and my kids attended school with him from elementary through high school.

My kid is sick and I’m going to have to miss.
Section D - would prefer to give all three to one person. Good seats

@Chris Lee any word on if any Vandy players have opted in to this deal?

How do you contain WF offense ? Is it containable ? For now we don't have the talent to get QB sacks and really WF's offense with it's quick reads and seems like always ahead of the chains offense makes it hard to put them in 3rd and longs . So can we give ourselves a better than 50% chance on 3rd downs ? Maybe.

The chances of getting to the QB is slim tomorrow but if Hartman plays. They are NOT going to call plays to put him in any danger so it's going to be a lot of WR screens , power run, quick slants , and occasional deep ball 80% of the time down the sideline for 50-50 balls. VU to have any chance has to be able to get to 3rd and 5+ to have any chance. Yeah VU will score points but I don't think anybody thinks we can win a boat race tomorrow. Defense will be the difference tomorrow. Contain and gamble I think will be key.

DL: RPO offense. Hartman will not run tomorrow so focus on RB and forget about getting a sack but would rather keep your eyes on the QB and get them hands up to throw off the timing and arch of those slants . 3rd and long get you some but other than that be disciplined .

LB: Someone has to be the spy in the backfield at all times. Motion man, RB, and a occasionally blitz on 1st and 2nd down. The others have to play deep and read and react and make a otherwise WF 8 yard play only 4 or less. WE HAVE TO GET to 3rd down.

DB's : Play as tight as you can and make them throw the perfect pass down the sideline. If you get beat so what they earned it move on but shut down the WR screen and quick toss.

Safeties: Will be the key along with the LB's. Safeties have to be our gamblers and be ready to make the break on balls or help with the screen game and make the sure tackle. Anchor Down Men It's an opportunity you have earned ! I'll be there !

Took this quote from the Wake Forum, The Pulpit (very little discussion there!)


“Conor, I'm assuming that any new wrinkles on offense and defense will be held back against Vandy and Liberty unless necessary, hoping they don't need to show their hand until Clemson.
Edited to add that I just watched coach Lea's press conference. You can see why Vandy hired him. The scary thing is that he really understands Wake's offense, and is a good defensive coach. I just don't think they have the horses yet to stay with Wake for 4 quarters.”

So, what says the Board? Does Clark’s knowledge of wake’s offense and defensive prowess suggest an advantage for Vanderbilt when Wake has the ball? Or are we really so defunct that we don’t yet have the horses to compete with the Deacons?

I'll try to answer these Friday afternoon.

Vanderbilt has moved up signficantly since the preseason:

Teams like Vanderbilt, Oregon, and NC State are still after Raphael. Update on Rivals:

Kickoff is 11 Central next Saturday, just seeing if anyone is up for getting together and if so, which option is better.

Just add your input in this thread and I'll see if I can put something together.

And also, where would people want to go?
