Clark Lea on Diego Pavia’s impact for Vanderbilt football
Here’s what Clark Lea said about Diego Pavia’s impact on Vanderbilt football ahead of his likely final home game.
Vanderbilt is clinging to hope of getting back in the CFP picture and must beat Kentucky to do that.
The Commodores (8-2, 4-2 SEC) must end the season with wins against Kentucky (5-5, 2-5) and Tennessee to have any chance of getting into the CFP. Winning out will also help the Commodores earn a berth in the best possible bowl game as well as 10 wins.
After starting the season at 2-5, Kentucky has won its last three games − Auburn 10-3, Florida 38-7, and Tennessee Tech 42-10.
Vanderbilt has won two of the last three games in the series with Kentucky, including a 20-13 victory in Lexington in 2024.
The game is sold out.
