The advanced metrics put Vandy's defense around 40th in the country last year. Offense around 90-100. Special teams around 75. Overall about #60, slightly worse than Texas, TCU, Baylor and slightly better than Tech.

thx, _fan, for providing "facts." i still think they're gonna be a handful. to reiterate, will be happy if we throttle them.

I'm pretty sure their mascot is based on the classic computer.

Jesus Christ, guys. I believe by definition a Commodore is a man with magnificent sideburns. Think their helmets cover up most of theirs, but they honor it on the sleeves of their jerseys, I think.

I don't think I'm HFBIQ but I will oblige for entertainment purposes only.

Vandy offense:  they have struggled to run the ball the first two games and no idea how generic they have been in the run game since they didn't need to depend on it to beat the first two opponents.  They don't have dangerous players on the edge but their QB is poised, smart and will take what we give him.

Vandy defense:  a very solid unit with a great deal of experience.  They don't have athletes on that side of the ball like the premiere SEC teams but as a unit they are stubborn and smart.

We will win but I don't anticipate it being a blowout.  If it is then we are REALLY good.  I think it will be more like a 31-20 / 34-21 type game where the Cats take on a TD fairly late to salt it away.  I just can't see their offense outscoring ours in this one. 
Academics is a stupid word.

Academic schools are synonymous for being rich, powerful and exclusive, three things Kansas State is not.

So when people throw the word "academics" around, that's really what they are referencing.

Besides our game, I am interested in Vanderbilt's next game, given that they play Bama. Not many chances to potentially gauge this team against Bama by using the same opponent @Vanderbilt and only the next week (I know there is a lot of noise in the analogy, but still)

It's going to be really hard to judge how we stack up to Alabama, given the physicality of our football team. I expect Vanderbilt to get beaten up pretty badly by the time we get through with them. I just wish they had a bye before the Alabama game.

In general I agree with the fatigue being a factor, the true noise I was referring to was personnel being as consistent as possible (for both teams) between the two games. But I do like that the games are close, though the bye week would be ideal. It does give a pretty decent shot at showing both teams "at this point" as you're going to get.

A fun thought experiment me and a coworker had was what if K-State beats Vandy by more than Bama? It shouldn't really mean anything but it would make for an interesting time. I mean, think of the BBS'n we could do with that.

that seems like an eminently reasonable take, and one i hope comes to fruition.

I'm a little insulted tbh. I care a whole lot. I also don't have the time or know how to do stats like FAN. I also don't have enough fbiq to break down our squads schemes or the other teams.

To say that I don't care though. Eff that.

I can break it down easily enough.

We have better athletes on offense than they do.

We have better athletes on defense than they do.

We have better athletes on special teams than they do.

We have better coaches than they do.

The dumb SEC rules give us half of their pud stadium, and our fans are louder than theirs.

Roll Snyd roll, cats win BIG, imho.
