All right, SEC Media. This is like a SEC Media Days tradition. Billy, Derek, Vandy 24-7. Man, what's it like covering a Vanderbilt team? It is a talk of the SEC Media Days for the first time ever. It's wild. I was talking to Shane about the Alabama win yesterday, and it didn't feel real. The whole game did not feel real. That's what started all of it. You beat Alabama. You

bring the goalpost downtown on Broadway. You're in Nashville, Mike. I mean, you felt it too. Everybody felt it's like, what is going on here? And you just felt that wave right. And then they go to Lexington and beat Kentucky. And obviously, Pavey gets banged up. That's when he got banged banged up big Dion Walker fell on him and you know

that'll that'll do it too right you know in the SEC so that's going to be the tough part for

pavia and Vandy moving forward but with last season that's what everybody's still talking about

that win over Alabama so that that's that's it that's what caused the the big wave of momentum

I rarely put notifications on but I was when you That's it. That's what caused the big wave of momentum.

I rarely put notifications on, but I was when you were boots on the ground, I put yours on because I wanted to see every video that was posted.

After the game, I was like, I need a plan. I need to be there. So I moved down toward the,

you know, like fifth row and video that took forever to get the goal post down. So I videoed that when they ripped it down and then they went to one of the end zones, like under the student section. They were going to try to go through that one, but they would have had to walk it all the way through under the concourse. They weren't going to do that. So they went through the other exit near the north end zone toward Broadway, three miles. And then at that point I had to go to the press conference but yeah it was just unbelievable and I never would have thought anything like that ever would have happened I mean I can't imagine what it was like 40 years ago last when they beat Alabama but you know Alabama wasn't what they are now and yeah and they had just beaten Georgia the week before everybody watched that game and're like, and throughout the week, we had a guy, Joey Dwyer,

get a quote from C.J. Taylor,

and Taylor said, y'all are going to be stunned at what happens this weekend. And, you know, we didn't think much of it. We're not posting that. That's ridiculous. Like, what are you talking about? and for that to happen, they were confident going to the week,

and I'm sure the Netflix feature will show that.

Yeah.

You know, it was a confident, great. And for that to happen, they were confident going to the week. And I'm sure the Netflix feature will show that.

Yeah.

You know, it was a confident, gritty group that, you know, I'll be interested to see what they do with it this year.

I'm sure we'll get into that.

But, yeah, it was unbelievable.

I'll never forget four years ago here.

First interview I've ever done on another show was yours.

So that's why, yeah.

Oh, yeah, that's right.
