After Tennessee beat Vanderbilt, 27-21, in overtime on Saturday, the Vol locker room was pumped and filled with your regular dances and chants. But at one point Vol coach Derek Dooley added this little critique...

“The one thing that Tennessee always does is kick the sh*t out of Vandy.”

Watch the video here. He says it around the 1:47 mark.

According to reports, Vanderbilt safety Andre Simmons was allegedly involved in an armed robbery of another student on Tuesday and will be suspended from the team until the completion of an investigation into the matter. WZTV in Nashville first reported that Simmons, 19, and another man barged into the alleged victim’s room and demanded money from a safe before one of the men hit the victim over the head with a gun and reportedly took $5,000. Vandy vice-chancellor David Williams said...

“We’re not sure what happened, but the alleged victim has filed charges against (Andre),” “The alleged activities are unacceptable to us and if Andre was, in fact, involved obviously we have a lot of concern with that. Andre is suspended from our program until the investigation is completed.”

Oct. 25, 2011

To all of the men and women who attend and work at the United States Military Academy, their families, all graduates of USMA and their fans:

We at Vanderbilt University would like to publicly offer our sincere apology for the events that occurred at the conclusion of our recent football game. While our football team performed our alma mater with our fans and band, the Black Knights, their band and cheerleaders, as well as their fans, stood at attention and honored us as would a worthy foe. However, after we were finished and the Black Knights began to perform their alma mater, our football team left the field and our loud speaker blasted music that had the result of drowning out the performing of your alma mater.

While there was no intention to be disrespectful, this was wrong and was a huge mistake on our part. There is no excuse for this oversight; we were just wrong and we are truly sorry.

Make no mistake, the people at Vanderbilt University, our alumni and fans respect all that you do and have done for this nation. We are honored by what you stand for and we understand that this was not the way you should have been treated.

On behalf of Vanderbilt University, please accept our apology for this mistake and oversight of your important protocol. You deserved better and we have learned from our mistake. We request your forgiveness.

Respectfully,

Vanderbilt University

You already know about the run in between Georgia defensive coordinator Todd Grantham and Vandy's coach James Franklin, but new close up footage of Franklin telling Georgia coach Mark Richt what happened has surfaced and you can watch it here.
