00:00There are five ranked versus ranked top 25 matchups on this

00:04week nine Saturday in college football, the most for a single

00:08Saturday, all season long. And why perhaps do we have five this

00:14Saturday, because Vandy and Navy are both ranked Vanderbilt number

00:1925 ranked inside the AP poll for the first time during a season

00:24since 2008 were involved in the final rankings of 2013 most

00:30recently. And here Vandy is Joe in Nashville where they tear

00:35down goalposts after upsetting a top five SEC team catching 18

00:41and a half against the Texas team that suffered the first

00:44loss of its season last week against Georgia. The odds

00:48makers as you see there expect this to be a robust bounce back

00:53spot for the Longhorns. Do you agree with the spread?

00:58Well, it, it makes sense. The spot obviously favors Texas

01:04being embarrassed last week to Georgia, though I don't, that's

01:07not really anything to shake your head at. But it was how

01:11they lost to Georgia being held to under 40 yards of total

01:15offense in the first half. And now you're going to go on the

01:18road again, and take on a Vanderbilt team here that has

01:21covered all four games as a dog this year, and Ben has won three

01:25of them outright. Pabby has absolutely been great. He also

01:30leads the team in rushing. But the problem is, if Texas wins

01:34this game and covers it, it's going to be because that Texas

01:38defense who is number one in yards per play against,

01:42especially on the ground, they are going to have to show up in

01:45a big way here this week. They didn't against Georgia, but

01:50they're gonna have to show up in a big way this week. There's

01:54no way I can go against Vandy, though. I don't trust Texas.

01:57They should win. Will they win by three touchdowns? Nobody else

02:01has been able to beat Vanderbilt and clear that kind of path. So

02:04no reason not to take the points here. If it ain't broke, don't

02:07fix it.
