Sedrick Alexander ran for two touchdowns, Randon Fontenette scored on a pick-six, and Diego Pavia outplayed Heisman Trophy contender Jalen Milroe as Vanderbilt stunned Alabama 40-35 on Saturday for the Commodores' first win over a top-ranked team.
This is the dream, right here. And for the next 12 hours, I'm going to enjoy the dream. We've got more ahead of us, but this is what Vanderbilt football needs to be about: big wins on big stages. We're going to go get some more.
Alabama had just moved to the top of the AP Top 25 after an emotional win over Georgia. The Crimson Tide opened as a 22.5-point favorite over the Commodores at ESPN BET; it was the first time an AP No. 1 team lost as at least a three-touchdown favorite since 2008.
We’re going to find out really how much we care about each other and what it looks like moving forward. We’ve been tested in different ways, really, a lot of the games here this season, and this is a different type of test now in our response.
