Rivalries & Top Games to Attend
Vanderbilt vs Tennessee
Rival Team: Tennessee Volunteers
Vanderbilt and Tennessee are founding members of the SEC, so when these pioneers play, everyone comes to watch. This in-state rivalry has been played for over a century as these bitter rivals have battled 109 times since 1892. Tennessee has taken 74 of those contests, but the Commodores have won two of the last three meetings.
Vanderbilt vs Ole Miss
Rival Team: Ole Miss Rebels
The Rebels are Vanderbilt’s second-oldest rival as well as their annual crossover opponent. These two schools are the two smallest in the SEC, and both have a high percentage of students involved in Greek life. Ole Miss holds the all-time series lead 50-38-2. However, the Commodores record of 18 straight wins in the series from 1894 to 1938 remains the longest winning streak in the series.
Vanderbilt vs Kentucky
Rival Team: Kentucky Wildcats
The Commodores rivalry with the Wildcats is one of the most evenly contested rivalries in not only the SEC but also all of college football. The Wildcats hold a one-game lead in the all-time series with a 42-41-4 lead. The Commodores will look to even things up when these two teams meet next in Nashville.
