NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Sedrick Alexander ran for two touchdowns, Randon Fontenette scored on a Pick-6 and Diego Pavia outplayed Heisman Trophy candidate Jalen Milroe as Vanderbilt stunned Alabama 40-35 Saturday for the Commodores' first win over the nation's top-ranked team.
Vanderbilt (3-2, 1-1) was 0-60 all-time vs. AP Top-5 teams before Saturday, the longest such streak in the Poll Era (since 1936). The Commodores hadn't beaten Alabama on the field in 40 years, but they snapped a 23-game skid by making big play after big play to give coach Clark Lea his alma mater's biggest win ever.

That really is what football is all about.
Yea, been a Vol fan all my life and thought Nico really did not handle it well.
Hats off to the Razorbacks, that game was smash mouth from start to end.

I’m sorry for your loss, but that was quite a game. I really thought you were gonna pull it out at the very end.
I’m seeing lots of smash mouth ball this weekend. Syracuse and UNLV went into overtime last night, too. It s been a wild CF day today.

It went down to the wire. Some mistakes on both sides. Green is an inconsistent QB. He can make some fantastic throws and some really easy ones that go short. Hopefully he’s okay.

I bet. We only know a couple of old college buddies that live in Bama. Hubby went to Georgia Tech with them. One of them introduced us. Don’t know if he is a Bama fan or not. Maybe. He’s definitely a Yellow Jacket fan.
