Season leaders, 2021.
The season's deepest loss: Vanderbilt 0, Georgia 62. A 62-point margin the season is remembered by.
"The League called it a scheduling accident; the program calls it a standard."
2021 sits in Vanderbilt's crisis ledger. The program does not moralise it. The next season begins the day this one ended and the crisis chapter closes when the ledger does.
