The Vanderbilt Commodores put up a noble fight against the Alabama Crimson Tide in the first half, but trail, 14-0. If not for a last-minute laser of a touchdown by A.J. McCarron and two missed Vandy field goals, this game could easily be more like 10-6. But it's not, and Bama will probably win. Life is hard.
