Vanderbilt football made clear during the week leading into its matchup with Alabama that it wasn’t intimidated by the Crimson Tide. According to Commodore quarterback Diego Pavia, that extended to the moments before the 40-35 upset in Nashville.

On Monday, the Vandy quarterback appeared on the Dan Patrick show to discuss the victory. Patrick asked a question about any potential “chirping” from Alabama during the game. As Pavia tells it, Alabama’s captains were extremely confident going into the game during the pregame coin toss.
