2008 Vanderbilt Football Preview:
Head Coach: Bobby Johnson
The Vanderbilt Commodores football program has been considered the underdog of the Southeastern Conference (SEC) since its creation in 1932. Vandy football players have also, however, shown themselves to be proud and unpredictable, beating #6 South Carolina and nearly upsetting #16 ranked Georgia on the road in 2007. Head coach Bobby Sanders has apparently found a home in Nashville and has made some unorthodox administrative changes in the athletic department in hopes to orchestrate a huge turnaround for the Commodores football program. Dudley Field at Vanderbilt Stadium will be a thrilling place to be this season as the Commodores try to climb the ranks of the SEC. There’s nothing more exciting than watching underdogs shock the nation by knocking off some of the great powerhouse teams in college football.

Vanderbilt began playing football in 1890, and saw a good deal of early success, including two national championships and 11 conference championships in the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association. Vanderbilt was at the height of its success when it helped found the SEC. Unfortunately the Commodores would never win another conference title, and would begin a steady decline that, other than a few highlights in the 1970’s and ‘80s, would continue through to today. This hasn’t kept Vandy from sending some terrific players to the NFL, including Jay Cutler, Hunter Hillenmeyer, and Todd Yoder.
The Vanderbilt Commodores play their home games at Vanderbilt Stadium in Nashville, Tennessee. Opened in 1922, rebuilt in 1981, and seating a capacity of nearly 40,000, Vanderbilt Stadium is a historic and beautiful venue to watch some of the best college football in the country. A home game in the ultra-competitive SEC is second to none, especially with the giant-killing Commodores fighting to regain their place as a football power.
