ESPN RECAP

Vanderbilt takes down No. 1 Alabama 40-35 in historic college football victory

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- , Fans of the Vanderbilt Commodores danced onto the field, jumping up and down as they tore down a goal post, carried it out of the stadium and rang out sweet sounds of victory. Then they toted the goal post just over a couple miles and tossed it into the Cumberland River. Their school's historic win over No. 1 Alabama deserved to be celebrated this way. Sedrick Alexander ran for two touchdowns, Randon Fontenette scored on a pick-six and Diego Pavia outplayed Heisman Trophy candidate Jalen Milroe as Vanderbilt stunned Alabama 40-35 on Saturday for the Commodores' first win over the nation's top-ranked team. Vanderbilt (3-2, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) had lost all 60 games against AP top-five teams, according to SportRadar.
