2019 Vanderbilt Commodores Football Schedule Analysis

– There’s no easing into the season with Georgia coming to Nashville to kick things off, followed up by a road game at Purdue. To make life even tougher, LSU is up next – at least there’s a week off to prepare – so just start out 1-2, and that might be good enough.

– Defending MAC champion Northern Illinois joins Purdue as part of the non-conference fun, but facing UNLV in the middle of the season and East Tennessee State late calm things down a bit with two almost certain wins.

– The Commodores get Georgia at home, but three of the last five games – South Carolina, Florida and Tennessee – are on the road to close things out. There’s no Alabama or Auburn from the West, but that LSU date stinks, and the annual matchup with Ole Miss is on the road.
