9. Vanderbilt, Nov. 28
We reach the first SEC game of the year on the list, though the Commodores barely played at that level last year, stumbling to an 0-8 conference record and an embarrassing non-conference 37-7 loss to Temple as well in Derek Mason’s first year at Vandy. VU played Tennessee tough in Nashville last year, keeping it competitive until the end, but it’s hard to view Vanderbilt as a huge obstacle in the East unless there’s a major turnaround on West End this year. The Vols get the Commodores at home and should be able to take care of business in the regular season finale.
