The Commodores are again shut down and forced to punt. This time Greene gains 9 on the return, with no flag!
1st and 10 at the Vandy 43. 6:28 left in the game.
Mason plunges off right tackle for 2, and a screen to Jordan nets 8 for the 1st down. Mason goes up the middle for 5, and then 7 on a pitch to the left. Holding, however, is called on the play, and we're backed up to the Vandy 38. 2nd and 15.
We throw another screen to Jordan, who gains 5 yards this time. Mason finds a hole over left guard on 3rd and 10, good for 11 and the first down!
The crowd erupts in cheers, and I turn to see why. J.B. Brewster is headed back out onto the field.
A fade to Brewster off motion is called, but I underthrow the ball and it falls incomplete. Vanderbilt jumps offside before the next play, giving us 5 free yards, and then J.B. takes 4 on a pitch left.
3rd and 1, and J.B. wants to score. Pitch right is the call, but the Commodores are all over it. Brewster loses 3 yards and Alston comes onto the field.
He nails a 33 yarder.
1:47 left in the game; UT 44, Vandy 0.
Vandy returns the kick, and their #2 QB is now in. Vanderbilt seems content to let this game die out, and ends the game from there.
Final. Tennessee 44, Vanderbilt 0.
