Vanderbilt Vs. Tennessee Score: Volunteers Take Early Lead In Key Rivalry Game

There were several questions heading into the Vanderbilt-Tennessee game in Knoxville tonight, but one of them was how Vols quarterback Tyler Bray would look if and when he took the field. Turns out that Bray was the one under center, and he hasn't looked too bad.

Bray is 6-of-8 for 88 yards, a touchdown and an interception as the Vols have taken an early, 14-7 lead on their intrastate rivals; Tauren Poole also has a one-yard touchdown run. For Vanderbilt, Zac Stacy already has 49 yards and a touchdown on 10 carries. Jordan Rodgers has had an uneven day, going 6-of-12 for 88 yards and an interception.

The game is actually relatively important for both teams. Vanderbilt can clinch a bowl slot with a win, while Tennessee has to get a victory to have any chance of making the postseason.
