VANDERBILT ALL-TIME BOWLS

The postseason accomplishment tells college football fans across the nation how far Head Coach James Franklin has brought the Vanderbilt program. The Commodores are headed toward a bright future that bears no resemblance to much of the previous six decades on campus. The team enters Spring Practice sporting the longest active win streak among Southeastern Conference SEC teams. Their success rate in late-season games and league encounters under Franklin has rarely been witnessed. The Vanderbilt offense ranks as the program's most explosive since World War I. For a second straight year, the Commodore defense ranks among the nation's Top 25 in key stat lines such as scoring defense. And Nashville fans are beginning to come out to see the Commodores. Indeed, it's a Brand New Day at Vanderbilt.

FOLLOWING A YEAR OF HISTORIC ACHIEVEMENT ON CAMPUS TYING TeAM RECORD FOR Victories in Season

Vanderbilt's nine wins in 2012 tied the single-season team record that has been accomplished just twice before â&#x20AC;&#x201C; in 1915 and 1904.

SEVEN-GAME WIN STREAK TO END THE SEASON

Vanderbilt ended the season riding a seven-game win streak, the team's longest since a similar streak in 1948. The last year Vanderbilt put together six wins to conclude its season was 1948.

UNDEFEATED NOVEMBER

The Commodores were 4-0 in November, beating Kentucky, Ole Miss, Tennessee and Wake Forest by a combined 163-65 margin. It was the first time since 1982 that Vanderbilt enjoyed an undefeated November.

WINNING ON THE ROAD

The Commodores under James Franklin won four road games in the 2012 season, including three in SEC action. This marks the most road victories by a Vanderbilt squad since 1948.

FIVE VICTORIES IN SEC ACTION

Vanderbilt was 5-3 in Southeastern Conference play last year. The only other Vanderbilt squad to reach five league victories in a season was the 1935 Commodores.

SOARING ENTHUSIASM AMONG FAN BASE

Enthusiasm among the Commodore fan base continues to soar due to Franklin's improvement of the program. Attendance increased nearly 15 percent this season in renovated Vanderbilt Stadium.

Five Offensive Games with 40+ Points

The Vanderbilt offense tallied more than 40 points against five foes this year. It was the first time since 1915 the Commodores put together that many 40+ point games. The team's 30.0-point average also was the highest season average since World War I.

DECISIVE VICTORIES IN SEC PLAY

Under Franklin, Vanderbilt has won four SEC games by 23 or more points, including Tennessee this year by a 41-18 margin. From 1957-2010, Vanderbilt had four total wins against SEC opponents by 23+ points.

Carey Spear

Three Returning 'dores: 2012 All-SEC picks Three Vanderbilt seniors, paced by record-setting wide receiver Jordan Matthews, are coming off All-Southeastern Conference recognition from a year ago. Matthews, from Madison, Ala., was a unanimous 2012 First Team All-SEC selection after establishing a new team record with 1,323 receiving yards. Joining Matthews on the AP All-SEC team were three second team picks: cornerback Andre Hal and placekicker Carey Spear. A fourth Commodore, offensive lineman Wesley Johnson was named honorable mention all-conference by the AP. Matthews put together arguably the finest season by a Commodore receiver, finishing with 94 receptions and eight touchdown catches in addition to the record-setting yardage total. He ranks as the SEC's leading active career receiver in virtually every stat category. Hal, a product of Port Allen, La., ranked second in the SEC last year with 16 passes defended. He finished with 36 solo tackles and two picks, both coming against Tennessee. Spear, from Mayfield Village, Ohio, put together the best season ever by a 'Dore placekicker, setting team records with 20 field goals and 87 points scored by a kicker. On the season, he was 20-of-24, including 15-of-15 inside 43 yards. Johnson, from Nashville, ranks among the SEC's most versatile and productive linemen. He started multiple starts at both tackle positions as a junior in 2012.

Vanderbilt also posted greater point production as the season endured. The Commodores averaged 41.7 points in the final six games and tallied at least 40 points against four opponents from BCS-affiliated leagues: Kentucky and Tennessee from the Southeastern Conference, and Wake Forest and North Carolina State from the Atlantic Coast Conference. Vanderbilt outscored its 13 foes in 2012 by a wide margin, 390-243. The 147-point differential is the second largest in modern Commodore gridiron history. Since World War II, the only point differential larger than 2012 came during the 1955 campaign when Vanderbilt outscored its opponents by 154 points for the season (240-86).

2011-12 STAT COMPARISON

Vandy Staff: Fully Intact from 2012 Vanderbilt is the only Southeastern Conference program that will have its entire coaching staff intact from the 2012 season. It marks the first time since 2009 that the Commodore staff remained intact. Last year, Franklin added George Barlow and Josh Gattis as position coaches/assistant recruiting coordinators. Vanderbilt is one of nine schools from conferences affiliated with the BCS that will return intact staffs. The others are Baylor, Louisville, Maryland, Minnesota, Nebraska, Northwestern, Notre Dame and Ohio State.

2013 VANDERBILT SPRING GUIDE

Vanderbilt Spring Notes Offensive Spring Goal: Replace Six Starters Back on Defense; Playmakers Rodgers, Stacy Productive Standouts return Several important playmakers will return in 2013 as Vanderbilt coaches look to build on the most impressive two-year offensive run in modern team history. While the Commodores return virtually the entire receiving corps intact and much of an improved offensive line, the staff will use spring drills to closely examine leading candidates for two vacancies sure to impact the 2013 season: quarterback and tailback. This spring, Offensive Coordinator John Donovan and his staff will start the process of Rushing Yards 2012 Total replacing two of the team's most Brian Kimbrow 413 yards, 3 TDs productive playmakers from a Wesley Tate 376 yards, 8 TDs year ago, running back Zac Stacy and quarterback Jordan Rodgers. Receiving Yards 2012 Total Stacy became the most decorated Jordan Matthews 1,323 yards, 8 TDs back in team history, posting Chris Boyd 774 yards, 5 TDs back-to-back 1,000 rushing yards W. Tate 116 yards, 1 TD en route to setting new CommoKris Kentera 98 yards, 2 TDs dore career standards with 3,145 rushing yards and 30 rushing TDs. Rodgers put together one of the best seasons ever by a Vanderbilt senior quarterback, passing for more than 2,500 yards and 15 TDs. Seven offensive starters are back from a 2012 unit that ranked among the most productive offenses in Vanderbilt history. Topping the list of returnees are Biletnikoff Award candidate Jordan Matthews at wide receiver and All-SEC offensive line prospect Wesley Johnson. They are backed by two-year wide receiver starters Chris Boyd and Jonathan Krause, and returning line starters Joe Townsend, Jake Bernstein and Andrew Bridges. Redshirt senior Austyn Carta-Samuels and talented redshirt freshman Patton Robinette will compete with two others for Rodgers' vacancy at quarterback. Carta-Samuels earned one start last year and transferred to Vanderbilt after starting the 2009-10 seasons at the University of Wyoming. Robinette is a former Tennessee prep player of the year who showed talent on the practice field last year. They will compete with spring enrollee Johnny McCrary and versatile sophomore Josh Grady. Two key running backs from Vanderbilt's Music City Bowl squad, redshirt senior Wesley Tate and sophomore Brian Kimbrow, are back to compete for the opening left by Stacy's graduation. Tate rushed for 376 yards and was most effective in short-yardage situations where he produced eight touchdowns. As a freshman, Kimbrow was an explosive threat, averaging 6.3 yards on 66 carries. It could be an important spring for two more running back candidates: redshirt sophomores Jerron Seymour and Derek King. Seymour missed the 2012 season, but posted five rushing touchdowns as a freshman in 2011. King is switching after playing defensive back last year.

Top OFFENSIVE RETURNEES

SiX Commodores at New Positions Six players will appear at new positions when drills start March 15. Versatile redshirt sophomore Josh Grady will see action at quarterback, shifting from wide receiver. Redshirt sophomore Derek King will move from cornerback to running back. A third redshirt sophomore Jacquese Kirk will switch from wide receiver to cornerback. Three redshirt freshmen – Torey Agee, Cory Batey and Adam Butler – are moving: Agee from defensive end to defensive tackle, Batey from receiver to strong safety, and Butler from offensive line to defensive tackle.

Six starters from a year ago are back for spring drills for a Commodore defensive staff that faces the task of replacing four key multi-year starters. The list of 2012 standouts back this spring includes the team's three top tacklers in seniors Kenny Ladler, Chase Garnham and Javon Marshall, defensive co-captain Walker May and All-Southeastern Conference recipient Andre Hal.

Six of the team's top seven tacklers from 2012 – Ladler, Garnham, Marshall, May, Hal and senior linebacker Karl Butler – are returning this spring. Among the other top key contributors expected at spring drills at redshirt junior end Kyle Woestmann and sophomore end Caleb Azubike, the team's No. 2 and No. 3 sack specialists from a year ago.

Top Defensive RETURNEES

Spear, Krause Top specialists; Staff Must Identify next Punter The Vanderbilt corps of specialists includes a record-setting senior placekicker and one of the top punt returners in recent team history. Carey Spear, an All-SEC selection in 2012 after booting a teamrecord 20 field goals, is expected to handle the team's placekicking and kickoff responsibilities. Spear gives the Commodores a strong-legged, accurate kicker who brings tremendous leadership abilities to the special team units. Senior Jonathan Krause became one of the SEC's top return specialists in 2012, averaging 11.2 yards on 25 punt returns. Krause, who took two punts for touchdowns last year, has the second best average of all SEC returners from the 2012 season. The Commodores do need to solve one key uncertainty this spring. For the first time in three years, Vanderbilt is in search of a starting punter following the graduation of Richard Kent, who developed into one of the nation's specialists. Colby Cooke, a highly regarded redshirt freshman, and promising walk-on Taylor Hudson will compete for the role in spring drills. Vanderbilt also returns junior Andrew East, a two-year starting snapper on all conversion and punt units. The team's top kick returners, sophomore Brian Kimbrow and senior Andre Hal, also are back. Both averaged more than 22 yards per return last year.

VAnderbilt Attendance ON THE Rise; 15% IncREASE on Campus in 2012 Vanderbilt officials hope to see upward trends in home attendance to continue after the Commodores 9-4 campaign in 2012. Last year, the Commodores hosted three sellouts, the most since 1996, and averaged 37,860 for six home dates, 15 percent higher than in 2011 when attendance totals improved over 2010 figures. Vanderbilt's double-digit attendance in 2012 was the highest in the SEC, and came during a season when college football attendance nationwide dipped 1.6% from 2011 figures. The Commodores hosted three sellouts on campus last year, the most in a single season since 1996. Vanderbilt played before 93.8% capacity crowds at home. To Vanderbilt players and coaches, the most positive aspect of the increased crowds is the growing popularity of Commodore football.

I’m incredibly happy to inform the Commodore Nation that the future of Vanderbilt Football is right now – and it’s brighter than ever.” The 2013 class includes 12 players on offense, 12 on defense and one kicking specialist. It features three prep All-Americans and 17 players that earned rare four-star evaluations from national recruiting services. Fifteen members of the class made appearances in prestigious postseason all-star games. Five different signees played huge roles on state championship squads.

Head Coach James Franklin

Doubters said it could not be done, but in two short years Vanderbilt Head Coach James Franklin has already taken Vanderbilt to heights not seen in decades, while completely changing the culture of the football program. Armed with a tireless work ethic, contagious personality, strong leadership and an invigorating passion for his team, Franklin has guided Vanderbilt to back-to-back bowl games for the first time in school history, signed the highest-rated recruiting class in school history three years in a row and mentored a squad that earned the AFCA Academic Achievement Award in 2012. The program's all-around success has turned heads of fans and media members across the country as people look to learn more about the mind behind the team's rise from the depths of the SEC. In two years, Franklin has reshaped the image of Vanderbilt football by not only his success, but also his energy and love for the program. He has created a fun, energetic and close-knit family atmosphere that players crave. His passion for Vanderbilt is also on full display publicly through his relentless promotion of the program and random acts of kindness. Whether it is speaking to local organizations and businesses in Nashville, helping freshmen students move into their dorm rooms, allowing an inspiring 11-year-old boy to lead the team onto the field for homecoming, passing out ice cream on campus or sitting in the home of a potential student-athlete, Franklin spreads his goodwill and vision for the program to all that will listen. To help spread his message, Franklin has provided unprecedented access to what takes place behind the scenes with his program. From pregame and postgame locker room speeches, to team meetings and trips inside the war room on signing day, Franklin has made a conscious effort to provide the public with an inside look at his program. His efforts have paid dividends in the media with feature stories and videos landing on prominent websites such as SI.com and SBNation.com and in publications such as Sports Illustrated and the Washington Post. Just last August, a video featuring Franklin awarding a scholarship to walk-on fullback Marc Panu went viral, collecting 400,000 views on YouTube and was featured on ESPN SportsCenter, FOX's morning show and other national outlets. Hired as the first African-American head coach in Vanderbilt gridiron history on Dec. 17, 2010, Franklin's off-the-field accomplishments have been

FRANKLIN COACHING ACCOMPLISHMENTS BACK-TO-BACK BOWL APPEARANCES

Franklin has guided Vanderbilt to back-to-back bowl games for the first time in school history. Before Franklin became the head coach, the Commodores played in just four bowls in 120 years.

MOST WINS IN A SEASON SINCE WORLD WAR I

Vanderbilt concluded the 2012 season 9-4. The win total matches a school record that dates back to World War I.

EXPLOSIVE OFFENSE, RESTRICTIVE DEFENSE

The 2012 Vanderbilt offense topped 40 points in five games for the first time since 1915. The Commodores also ranked in the Top 20 nationally in both scoring defense and total defense.

DECISIVE VICTORIES IN CONFERENCE PLAY

Under Franklin, Vanderbilt captured four SEC games by 23 or more points. From 1957-2010, Vanderbilt had four total wins against SEC opponents by 23+ points.

MOST SOUTHEASTERN CONFERENCE WINS SINCE 1935

Vanderbilt was 5-3 in SEC play in 2012. The programâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only other five-win SEC season came in 1935.

EXPERIENCING NOVEMBER SUCCESS

Vanderbilt was 6-2 in the month of November under Franklin. In the decade before he arrived on campus, Vanderbilt was 3-32 in November games.

ENTHUSIASM SOARS ON CAMPUS

Vanderbilt played before three home sellouts in 2012, the most since 1996. Total home attendance spiked 15 percent from 2011.

2013 VANDERBILT SPRING GUIDE

HEAD COACH james franklin outstanding, but the results on the field have simply been staggering. In his initial season with Vanderbilt in 2011, Franklin became the only first-year coach in school history to guide the Commodores to a bowl game and surpassed the total wins achieved by the program in each of its previous two seasons. As an encore, all Franklin did in his second season was run circles around what he achieved in 2011 and more, much more. Franklin celebrates a touchdown with players. He guided Vanderbilt to a 9-4 season, matching the school record for wins (1915), and ending the season with the longest winning streak in the SEC, having won seven straight. It was Vanderbilt's longest win streak since an eight-game streak in 1948. The 'Dores capped the season with a 38-24 win over No. Carolina State in the Music City Bowl. After the victory Franklin also was named as a finalist for National Coach of the Year honors from the Bryant Awards. Vanderbilt finished among the nation's best in a number of defensive statistical categories, ranking No. 6 in pass efficiency defense, No. 14 in pass defense, No. 15 in scoring defense and No. 19 on total defense. In 2012, Vanderbilt’s SEC wins came at Missouri, Kentucky and Ole Miss and at home against Auburn and Tennessee. The team’s 40-0 shutout at Kentucky was its second shutout of the season, marking the first time Vanderbilt had two shutouts in the same year since 1968. The team’s win at Ole Miss was its sixth win of the season and came after facing a 23-6 deficit in the third quarter. Vanderbilt’s win against Tennessee was its first at home over the Volunteers since 1982. Other wins came against Presbyterian, UMass and Wake Forest.

Vanderbilt won at Wake Forest, 55-21, and scored the second-most points ever allowed at BB&T Field. The win also helped Vanderbilt eclipse 300 points for the second straight year – a first in school history. Vanderbilt excelled in all three phases of the game in 2012. On offense, the team scored 40-plus points on five occasions for the first time since 1915. The defense allowed just 18.2 points per game – the fewest since 1975. On special teams, Vanderbilt had an All-SEC punter and kicker in the same year for the first time in team history. Franklin also helped mentor three players to school records in 2012. All-SEC running back Zac Stacy became Vanderbilt’s all-time leading rusher and was the first player in school history to rush for 1,000 yards in back-toback seasons. All-conference receiver Jordan Matthews set Vanderbilt’s single-season receiving yardage record. Kicker Carey Spear set a new school record with 81 points scored and 19 field goals made. Six different players also received weekly awards from the SEC in 2012: Spear, cornerback Andre Hal, offensive linemen Wesley Johnson and Joe Townsend, defensive end Walker May and punter Richard Kent. In two seasons at the helm, Franklin has compiled a 15-11 overall record. The 15 wins are the second most wins in school history of any second-year head coach. Only Dan McGugin registered more victories (16, 1904-05) in his first two seasons than Franklin has. Franklin is 7-1 all-time in non-conference games and went 4-0 in non-SEC games in 2011, Vanderbilt's first unblemished non-conference mark since 1999. In SEC play, Vanderbilt has also more than held its own. Four of Vanderbilt’s SEC wins have come by 23 points or more. From 1957-2010, Vanderbilt had four total wins against SEC opponents by 23-plus points. Before Franklin arrived, Vanderbilt had historically struggled to finish seasons on a strong note. However, it has been just the opposite under Franklin. For the first time since 1948, Vanderbilt finished undefeated in November. In two years, Franklin’s teams are 6-2 in November. In the decade before he arrived on campus, Vanderbilt was 3-32 in November games. The success of the team on the field has also translated to the stands. In 2012, attendance rose nearly 15 percent at the newly-renovated Vanderbilt Stadium, which hosted three sellouts for the first time since 1996.

2012 GAME RECAP Gamecocks Earns Comeback Victory in Season Opener NASHVILLE – Ninth-ranked South Carolina and coach Steve Spurrier got a big scare to open the season. Marcus Lattimore and Connor Shaw helped the Gamecocks grind their way past scrappy Vanderbilt. Lattimore ran for two touchdowns and 110 yards in his first game back after tearing his left ACL, and Shaw ran for 92 yards while playing the second half with an injured shoulder as No. 9 South Carolina rallied for a ame victory against Vanderbilt on Thursday Aug. 30, 2012 17-13 night. Nashville "Maybe it's good for us ...," Spurrier said. "You look at the preseason press we thought we were hot stuff. Then we almost got that stuff beat out of us." But Shaw bruised his right, throwing shoulder late in the first half and missed the first two series of the third quarter before returning. The junior drove the Gamecocks for the go-ahead touchdown and ran 12 yards to the Vandy 1 before rolling in pain in the end zone. Lattimore scored the go-ahead TD on a 1-yard run with 11:25 to go.

PLAY OF THE GAME

Scoring Summary

After a missed Vanderbilt field goal, that would have put the Commodores up 16-10, in the fourth quarter. South Carolina drove 66 yards in nine plays with running back Marcus Lattimore scoring from one yard out to give the Gamecocks the lead.

Northwestern (2-0) didn't score a touchdown in the first three quarters but managed 17 points in the fourth to come away with another dramatic win after beating Syracuse 42-41 in the opener. The Wildcats finally found the end zone when Mark ran it in from the 7 to give ame Sept. 8, 2012 Northwestern a short-lived 13-10 lead with 9:28 left in the game. Vanderbilt's Zac Evanston, Ill. Stacy then turned a short swing pass into a 55-yard gain that put the ball on the 14, but instead of a touchdown, the Commodores (0-2) had to settle for a tying 26-yard field goal by Carey Spear. Northwestern caught a break on the next drive when Trevor Siemian's 34-yard pass to Rashad Lawrence along the left sideline was ruled a completion even though he fumbled the ball as he went out of bounds. Jeff Budzien kicked an 18-yarder with 2:01 remaining to break the tie.

2012 GAME RECAP Murray, Potent Offense Leads Georgia Over Commodores ATHENS, Ga. -– When Aaron Murray steps to the line, he feels a sense of calm that comes from experience. Murray completed his first 12 passes and got plenty of help from the rest of the offense, leading No. 5 Georgia to its most complete performance of the season in a 48-3 victory over Vanderbilt Saturday night. Murray hooked up with Brown and King ame on touchdown throws, breaking a tie with Sept. 22, 2012 Eric Zeier for second place in school history. The fourth-year junior has 69 career TDs, just Athens, Ga. three behind David Greene. Murray also scored on a 1-yard sneak as the Bulldogs raced to a 27-0 lead in the first half. He finished 18 of 24 for 250 yards. But there was more to this offensive performance than another big night for the quarterback. A lot more. Georgia's freshmen backs had another outstanding game. Todd Gurley rushed for 130 yards and two touchdowns, including a 29-yard score in which he broke at least four tackles. Keith Marshall had a 52-yard TD among his two scoring runs.

2012 GAME RECAP Vandy Gets First SEC Road Win in Two Years at Mizzou COLUMBIA, Mo. – A botched Missouri extra-point snap and a bobbled punt attempt that led to a safety helped Vanderbilt beat Missouri 19-15 Saturday night, depriving the former Big 12 school of its first Southeastern Conference win. Zac Stacy rushed for 72 yards and two touchdowns on 29 carries for Vanderbilt (2-3, 1-2), which earned its first conference win. Jordan Rodgers was 14 of 24 for 182 yards and one ame interception. Missouri (3-3, 0-3) took an early 6-0 lead Oct. 6, 2012 and kept Vanderbilt from gaining a first down Columbia, Mo. until nearly nine minutes into the second quarter. Missouri couldn't muster much offense after an early injury to quarterback James Franklin, who sprained his left knee on a first-quarter run and didn't return. Vanderbilt's first points of the game came when Missouri punter Trey Barrow couldn't handle a snap while standing in the back of Missouri's end zone, with the ball rolling out the back. A 5-yard Stacy run late in the second half gave the Commodores a 9-6 lead they wouldn't relinquish.

Scoring Summary

PLAY OF THE GAME With the Commodores clinging to a four-point lead on their own 26-yard line and facing a 3rd & 9, Zac Stacy runs for 13 yards to pick up the first down and stay in bounds allowing the Dores to run out the clock.

KEY STATISTIC Punter Richard Kent's big day kicking the ball was key as the senior averaged 43.4 yards per punt, swinging field position with two punts of over 50 yards and two inside the 20-yard line.

QUOTABLE "It was just one of those situations that we go over almost every day - four-minute situations. I knew I had to get the first down and got it and knew I had to stay inbounds. It was a great way to end the game. I was pretty determined on the run." Running back Zac Stacy on his first-down rush to seal the game

NOTEWORTHY The SEC road win marked the first for Vanderbilt since winning at Ole Miss in 2010. After Missouri's first two drives, the Commodores' defense allowed only 50 yards and three first downs the rest of the first half.

2012 GAME RECAP Driskel, Gators Prove Too Much for Commodores NASHVILLE – No one will overlook Jeff Driskel again, not after the Florida quarterback ran the ball better than even Tim Tebow. Driskel ran for 177 yards and three touchdowns, and the fourthranked Gators beat Vanderbilt 31-17 on Saturday night to stay undefeated going into their big showdown with No. 3 South Carolina. Driskel ran only 11 times, and the sophomore set the Florida record for yards rushing by a quarterback, topping ame Tebow's 166 yards against Mississippi in 2007 Oct. 13, 2012 on 27 carries. Vanderbilt watched Gators running back Nashville Mike Gillislee so closely that Driskel didn't even think the Commodores laid a hand on him on any of his TD runs. The Gators (6-0, 5-0 SEC) finished off their last SEC road trip outside of the state of Florida with their 22nd straight win over Vanderbilt. Florida, which rallied in the second half to beat Texas A&M, Tennessee and LSU already this season, took control early this time. The Gators scored 21 straight points, including 11 in the second quarter where they took the lead for good.

2012 GAME RECAP 'Dores Win Second Straight; Soundly defeat UMASS NASHVILLE – For more than 25 minutes, Vanderbilt didn't look the part of the favorite. But the Commodores needed just 55 seconds to assume the role. Two late first-half touchdowns made up for a penalty-filled opening half and broke open a tight game as Vanderbilt rolled to a 49-7 victory over winless Massachusetts on Saturday. Jordan Rodgers completed 17 of 21 passes for 217 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran for a score as the Commodores (4-4) overcame 11 penalties, ame Oct. 27, 2012 two turnovers and the loss of their starting running back to blow out UMass (0-8). Nashville Vanderbilt made it look easy in the second half - specifically the third quarter. Within five minutes, the Commodores leapt to a 49-0 lead thanks to four touchdowns, including an interception return and the team's first punt return for a score since 1999. "It was huge," Rodgers said. "We needed it. We got off to a slow start and we needed to hit a couple of those touchdowns late in the half to give us some momentum - some kind of confidence going into halftime because we had too many mental mistakes."

2012 GAME RECAP Commodores Rally from 17-point Deficit to Down Rebels OXFORD, Miss. – It was a clutch moment that has so often flummoxed Vanderbilt's football program for the better part of its history. But in yet another piece of mounting evidence that the Commodores are a SEC program on the rise, Jordan Rodgers calmly surveyed the field and found Chris Boyd wide open for a 26-yard touchdown pass with 52 seconds remaining to give Vanderbilt a 27-26 victory over Mississippi on Saturday night. It ended a thrilling comeback for the ame Commodores (6-4, 3-3 SEC), who trailed 23-6 Nov. 10, 2012 early in the third quarter but rallied for their Oxford, Miss. fourth straight victory. Now the postseason is in Vanderbilt's future - again. The Commodores are poised to go to their second straight bowl game for the first time in school history. Second-year coach James Franklin has engineered the quick turnaround, turning Vanderbilt into an SEC threat nearly overnight. "I'm looking forward to the day when I don't have to say first ever, because we want this to be the culture at Vanderbilt. A culture of winning," Franklin said. "Our coaches and players believe it."
