The phrase "bowl eligible" and Vanderbilt have not been together since 1982. It will have to wait a little longer. The 5-0 Commodores went into Starkville and came away with their first loss. The minimalist offense and shaky QB play finally caught up with them as Mississippi State held on for the 17-14 win.Vanderbilt's offense was worse than even the score indicated. They had only 109 yards of total offense -- with over half the yardage coming on one scoring drive. The Commodores averaged just over three penalties per game, committed ten. Vandy had seven, three-and-outs and only held the ball for just over 23 minutes.
The quarterbacks combined for 8-19 for 62 yards and two very costly 4th quarter interceptions. The first inside their own 15, that the Bulldogs converted for a touchdown. The other with just over 2 minutes left, that allowed Mississippi State to ice the game. That Vandy even had a chance late in the game is a testament to their defense and the play-not-to-lose offense of Mississippi State.
Some credit for the Vandy offensive woes should go to the Bulldog defense, but the Commodores were not helping themselves. The Bulldogs notch only their second win overall, and their first in the SEC.
