After suffering a tough loss to No. 2 Georgia (6-1,4-1 SEC) at home last Saturday, No. 5 Texas football (6-1,2-1 SEC) will head to Nashville to face the No. 25 Vanderbilt Commodores (5-2,2-1 SEC). The Commodores are currently on a 3-game winning streak, including a notable victory over the #15 Alabama Crimson Tide.
The Longhorns will be facing a formidable opponent on the road, where they are 1-0 this season. Meanwhile, the Commodores are a perfect 4-0 at home. These two teams last met 96 years ago, with Vanderbilt winning 13-12. The Commodores hold an 8-3-1 edge in the all-time series.
This time, the Longhorns enter as 18.5-point favorites (per FanDuel). It should be an exciting matchup, with the Commodores riding a three-game winning streak and the Longhorns coming off a tough loss against Georgia.
