#1 Alabama Football at Vanderbilt

#1 Alabama Football at Vanderbilt

NASHVILLE, Tenn.–– A theme for Alabama football this week was avoiding any disappointment or trap game against Vanderbilt after upsetting Georgia last week.

The Crimson Tide head into their first SEC road game of the season against the Commodores, but there will be far more fans dressed in purple and white than black and gold at FirstBank Stadium.

Kickoff is scheduled for 3:15 p.m. on SEC Network. BamaCentral brings you live from Nashville.
