What to Know

The Vanderbilt Commodores will play against a Division II opponent, the ETSU Buccaneers, in an early-season tune-up Saturday at 8 p.m. ET at Vanderbilt Stadium. Returning after a rocky 0-9 year, the Commodores are aiming to prove that the past does not define them.

Vanderbilt has the odds in their favor, so they'll need to guard against complacency. A win is hardly a sure thing, especially this early in the season, so expect a good game.
