Alabama vs. Vanderbilt: Live updates, score, results, highlights, for Saturday's NCAA Football game
Live scores, highlights and updates from the Alabama vs. Vanderbilt football game
The Alabama Crimson Tide and the Vanderbilt Commodores will face off in an SEC clash at 7:30 p.m. ET Sept. 24 at Bryant-Denny Stadium. These two teams seek to continue their momentum from their previous wins.
When you finish with 340 more yards than your opponent like Bama did last week, a favorable outcome is almost sure to follow. They took their game at home with ease, bagging a 63-7 victory over the Louisiana-Monroe Warhawks. The contest was pretty much decided by the half, when the score had already reached 35-7. Bama QB Bryce Young was slinging it as he passed for three TDs and 236 yards on 18 attempts in addition to punching in one rushing touchdown.
The Crimson Tide's defense was a presence as well, as it got past the Warhawks' offensive line to sack the QB four times for a total loss of 23 yards. It was a group effort with five guys contributing.
Meanwhile, Vanderbilt beat the Northern Illinois Huskies 38-28 last week. Vanderbilt's success was the result of a balanced attack that saw several players step up, but QB AJ Swann led the charge as he passed for four TDs and 255 yards on 28 attempts.
Bama is the favorite in this one, with an expected 40.5-point (!) margin of victory. They have been consistent moneymakers against the spread when favored (2-0), so they might be worth a quick bet.
The wins brought Bama up to 3-0 and the Commodores to 3-1. A couple stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: The Crimson Tide haven't allowed a passing touchdown yet this season. But Vanderbilt ranks first in the nation when it comes to passing touchdowns, with 12 on the season. We'll see which of these strengths -- offense or defense -- will win out.
