Through 1 Quarter

Both the Vanderbilt Commodores and the Tennessee Volunteers suffered losses in their previous contests, and after one quarter neither squad is closer to making up for it this week. The Commodores and Tennessee are all tied up at 7. Vanderbilt already has more points in this matchup than they finished with two weeks ago.

Vanderbilt has been relying on WR Cam Johnson, who has caught four passes for one TD and 44 yards, and QB Ken Seals, who has passed for one TD and 78 yards on ten attempts. Johnson hadn't helped his team much against the Missouri Tigers, so this is a nice turnaround for him.

Vanderbilt would like to be able to send their fans home happy this week, especially since they haven't been able to yet this season. Check back to see if they heard cheers from the stands or boos instead.

What to Know

The Vanderbilt Commodores need to shore up a defense that is allowing 36.75 points per game before their contest Saturday. They will take on the Tennessee Volunteers at 4 p.m. ET at Vanderbilt Stadium after a week off. Both teams took a loss in their last game, so they'll have plenty of motivation to get the 'W.'

It's never fun to lose, and it's even less fun to lose 41 to nothing, which was the final score in Vanderbilt's tilt against the Missouri Tigers two weeks ago. Vanderbilt was in a tough position by the half, with the score already sitting at 21 to nothing. QB Ken Seals wasn't much of a difference maker for the Commodores; Seals passed for only 79 yards on 19 attempts.

Meanwhile, Tennessee came up short against the Florida Gators last week, falling 31-19. No one had a standout game offensively for Tennessee, but they got scores from a handful of players including RB Ty Chandler, RB Eric Gray, and WR Velus Jones Jr..

Vanderbilt is the clear underdog, so they're hoping it's the size of the fight that determines this one. At 1-3 against the spread at home, they are no cash cow. That said, Tennessee isn't so hot on the road, where they are 0-4.

When the two teams previously met in November of last year, the Commodores lost to the Volunteers on the road by a decisive 28-10 margin. Maybe Vanderbilt will have more luck at home instead of on the road? Watch the matchup and check back on CBS Sports for all the details.
