Vanderbilt Basketball Prepares for Senior Night Showdown Against Arkansas
Good morning, Commodore fans! It’s a big day for Vanderbilt men’s basketball as they gear up to host the Arkansas Razorbacks for Senior Night.

The Commodores have secured eight SEC wins this season, a significant improvement that has injected a renewed sense of optimism and excitement into the program What differences are there? Since the last time, Barry Booker no longer works for SEC, so presumably the coach won’t ask him if he has any eligibility left. Also, thanks in part to ESPN deciding they’d rather show a stupid simulated golf league.
This year’s matchup promises a different atmosphere and, hopefully, a different outcome. The game is scheduled for 9 PM CT and will be broadcast on the SEC Network.
