Vandymania is ran by cowards. They want to talk about fairness, but yet will deny opposing fans access to their boards.
As usual, tough to find a good message board with a decent layout. Not much intelligent football conversation when I did find one. I could learn more about football from a day on VN than I could in 3 years on a Vandy message board. Vandymania is one I used, with a excerpts from others as well.
Anyways, here's what the Vandy faithful are saying about the end-all purpose of their existence, and that is..... The Tennessee Game.
-Can't seem to find any general score predictions. Just a few posters that think they will win by 2-3 scores.
-They feel they will travel well. I would agree. Their fans are fired up for this one.
-They are pissed about the opening line.
-The play calling against KY was vanilla so UT won't have much film study........ and yes they're serious when they say this.
-The general theme is pretty much "Run the ball on UT all night like Auburn and we will kill them like Auburn did".
-They're getting really upset at all the bowl projections they are seeing for us, as apparently the majority has us going to a bowl.
-Somehow, some way, the awesomely realistic rumor of Eric Berry paying for his little brothers to come here spilled over into their message boards. They saw where the twins committed and are inquiring now if Eric paying for his brothers tuition is some kind of NCAA violation. They are sure it's illegal and want it to be looked into..... I'm embarrassed for them for even thinking it happened.
-They are referencing the fact that they beat Auburn last year and Auburn beat us this year as proof that they will win...... no that is not a joke.
-Apparently they refer to us as UTjr. I'm curious as to how that's justifiable.
-Before the Kentucky game there was a thread titled "Kentucky: can we actually tie up the series?" And it made me so proud to be a fan of a real school.
-They refer to us the way a lot of UT fans refer to Bama, in the sense that they want us to lose to everyone we play no matter what.
-They are pretty much taking all the credit for getting Dooley fired. I'm seeing a lot of comments like "Looks like we probably just got Muschamp fired. That's 2 SEC coaches Vandy has gotten fired in 2 years."
-They all seem to talk about the 2011 OT game in Neyland a lot. Apparently it's the only game Franklin "should have won but didn't".
-They say the same ignorant nonsense on their boards that the trolls do over here. "UT fans live in the past, Vandy is the team of the future!!!" (which would make sense if their 2014 class was #2..... or even #5...... or even #20......... but it's none of the above.)
-Actual quote from Vandymania
-They take a lot of pride in counting the number of Vandy threads on Vol boards. They have their own threads devoted to counting them.
-Another actual quote from their message boards, this one is complete gold:
-From what I'm gathering their game against us is the highlight of their season. Apparently there was a "beat UT" chant after the KY game.
Get real. I dont care how mean they were back then dudes were small. They would get smashed by every bcs team, sorry.

This.
They constantly complain about how bad other teams' fans are (particularly UT fans), all while bashing them and name-calling. Plus you have to be approved to post there, and get out of line, you're banned. Which that usually means a Vandy fan can say/do anything they want, but you reply and you're gone. The best part was commenting on Duke not filling their stadium last week.
I've had about 3 accounts banned there.
In a true rivalry, BOTH teams have to participate. With Vandy crushing UT 41-18 last year, being 13-4 in its last 17 games and riding high under James Franklin, and with UT only 3-19 in SEC games the last three years, it doesn't seem to me like much of a rivalry any more.
I confess, there was a time when I used to intensely dislike Tennessee... but not any more. Now, I kind of look upon Tennessee as Vanderbilt's little brother. You know how it is... you may beat your little brother to a bloody pulp when it's just the two of you together, but ultimately you don't want him to reach the point of being totally disrespected by the rest of the world.

This made me laugh so hard. If your program is the bar at which other universities decide "you know what, we really are bad and this coach may not be the one for us", then your program is doing it wrong. The fact that they are stupid enough to be proud of this just makes me so happy.As usual, tough to find a good message board with a decent layout.
