OUR PREDICTION: I’m going to roll the dice on Vandy here. The Commodore defense has been steady under coach Derek Mason and Alabama has yet to find its rhythm offensively. While the Crimson Tide defense will be the best the Commodores see all season, Vandy also has a quarterback in Kyle Shurmur that is completing 71 percent of his passes this season. He also has eight touchdowns without throwing an interception in 69 pass attempts. I like dogs that are competitive and Vanderbilt fits the bill, even though I’m hesitant in fading Alabama.
