Predicting a perfect football season for the Missouri Tigers

Vanderbilt

Vanderbilt is another abstract team. The Commodores were nothing before former head coach James Franklin rebuilt the program, and have fallen back to obscurity since his departure.

When I was a kid, I wondered what kind of mascot a Commodore was. At first I thought it was some kind of bird (Condor), then I thought it was some kind of a GI Joe-type soldier.

I was close on the last part, but it’s worse for Vandy fans. It’s a naval officer ranking higher than a captain, but lower than a rear admiral. What?

Anyway, another weak opponent for the Tigers. The fact that Vandy continues to be ranked ahead of Missouri in all polls is laughable, as well.

The fact that the SEC would rather accept a sub-par program such as Vandy over one that won two division championships and boasts the best offense in the SEC, is also hilarious.

This is a home game for the between ranks Vanderbilt, so I’ll give them seven points. The rest is on Mizzou, which improves to 11-0.
