Man. As a graduate of Vandy and Texas (my folks went to Texas so grew up a Horns fan and got my UT degree for grad school), I never thought I’d see the day that (1) they actually play each other and (2) if they did, there would be any question of who would win. This is legitimately the first time in my life I am conflicted in watching a football game with teams I actually care about.
I’m still not sure that (2) is in play. Even after the Bama-Vandy game with the inputs of everything that happened, the computers gave Vandy a theoretical 1% chance of winning the game.
Perhaps my Vandy fandom has always been glass half empty (for good reason) and my Texas fandom has been glass half full, but I think Texas wins by 21+.
Oh I was also on the goalposts last time we tore them down in Nashville. Big ups for the students taking it all the way downtown this time, but we did end up with an entire upright in our off campus fraternity house that we ended up sawing up.
