#5 Vanderbilt (11-2) vs #18 Indiana (11-2)(-5) on TV3.

Again we get to play in rainy weather, and Vandy begins with the ball. They drive 78 yds to score on a 9-yd TD pass on the opening drive, on which they had a 36-yd completion. 0-7, Vanderbilt. We get to their 13-yd line on our first drive but turn the ball over on downs. This time we stop the Commodores from getting a first down. We remain seven points down for the rest of the first quarter and get a prime opportunity to tie when we get to the Vandy 4-yd line in the middle of the second quarter. Vallery passes to Wittich who's stopped for no gain and fumbles away the ball to the defense.

At halftime we have 7 first downs, 26 rushing yds and 93 passing yds, while Vanderbilt has 9 first downs, 33 rushing yds and 115 passing yds. Midway through the third quarter we get our first turnover as Buff fumbles the ball on a reverse and Brignac recovers on their 48. We use that to full advantage as Vallery hits Bertram for a 28-yd TD pass! 7-7 all at 5:01 in the 3rd. Vandy score a FG on the very next drive, however, to regain the lead with 7-10 at 0:12 left in the third quarter.

We start the fourth quarter with a drive where we get a break through a pass interference call on Vandy which moves us past midfield. Wittich get a key block from left tackle Les Carter and runs 35 yds for a touchdown! 14-10, Indiana, at 9:27 in the 4th. Schultz answer with a 34-yd completion, and then we're called for spearing, which puts the Coms at our 35. They get down to our 4-yd line, where Schultz hit Sherman for a TD, and 14-17, Vandy. Three minutes left of the game.

Vallery finds Bertram for 30 yds, but gets a 4th and 11 at midfield with 1:32 left. The fourth-down conversion attempt is intercepted and Vandy has the ball on their 40. We have all our timeouts left. They are held to no gain for the consecutive plays, which killed our timeouts, but we have 57 seconds to go. Wittich return the punt 11 yds to our 26. Vallery throws three incompletions and we have a 4th and 10 on our 26 with 29 seconds remaining. Blades get the pass, but DROPS it!!! Oh no! Season over.
