Vanderbilt head coach Derek Mason stated the obvious at his weekly press conference Tuesday, calling the team's upcoming matchup with Steve Spurrier-led South Carolina "a great challenge."
Vanderbilt has struggled to 1-2 this season, causing a fan to strip in frustration, and another to buy a website domain advocating for Mason's resignation.
As Mason noted, Spurrier holds a slight edge in experience, having coached for more than 25 years.
