The Vanderbilt Commodores are set to face the Georgia State Panthers in Atlanta on September 14, aiming to improve to 3-0 for the first time since 2017. Vanderbilt has started the season strong, with a 55-0 victory over Alcorn State and an overtime win against Virginia Tech, bolstered by quarterback Diego Pavia’s impressive dual-threat performance. In contrast, Georgia State seeks to recover from a loss to Georgia Tech but recently secured a win against Chattanooga, fueled by running back Freddie Brock’s game-winning touchdown. The game marks the first meeting between the two teams, with Vanderbilt bringing a roster featuring several Georgia natives. The Commodores are favored, having covered the spread in their last three games, while the Panthers struggle as home underdogs. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET, broadcasted on ESPN+.
