Goalposts in a River Last Time: No. 7 Alabama Heads Back to Vanderbilt

DeBoer said Alabama is treating Vanderbilt as a dangerous opponent after the Commodores’ first SEC win and Jared Curtis’ steady growth.

  • Alabama coach Kalen DeBoer and the Crimson Tide visit FirstBank Stadium on Saturday to face Vanderbilt, seeking to avoid repeating their historic 2024 loss in Nashville.
  • Vanderbilt defeated the Crimson Tide 40-35 in 2024, an upset so historic that fans dismantled the goalposts and transported them two miles from campus to a river.
  • Ranked third in the College Football Playoff, Alabama holds a 7-2 record, while Vanderbilt enters with a 4-5 record following a 25-23 win over Mississippi State.
  • Freshman quarterback Jared Curtis leads the Vanderbilt offense with 1,657 passing yards, targeting a bowl game appearance as the Commodores seek their second consecutive SEC victory.
  • DeBoer cautions that opponents often underestimate the Commodores despite their execution, as Coach Clark Lea maintains a roster with significant continuity from previous seasons.
