Jared Curtis Faces VERY Hostile Road Test in Athens, Can he Succeed?

Locked On Podcast Network — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 11:57:52 GMT

Vanderbilt Commodores face a high-stakes challenge as five-star freshman quarterback Jared Curtis returns to Athens to take on the Georgia Bulldogs. With Curtis set to face a fierce 93,000-strong Sanford Stadium crowd and a relentless UGA defense led by Kirby Smart, can he find his rhythm and lead Vanderbilt's search for a new offensive identity? The storyline intensifies as Curtis, once twice committed to Georgia, looks to prove himself against a loaded Bulldogs roster anchored by quarterback Gunner Stockton.

Corey Burton breaks down Vanderbilt’s offensive line struggles, the emergence (or absence) of a second wide receiver, and the need for aggressive play-calling from Tim Beck. Insights include the potential for schematic adjustments to counter Georgia’s pressure, the battle in the trenches against Georgia’s dominant offensive line, and questions about Steve Gregory’s role on defense. Can Vanderbilt find a path through the Bulldogs’ obstacles, or will Sanford Stadium remain an unsolvable riddle?

Vanderbilt's Game Plan to Shock Georgia: Create Chaos?

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Vanderbilt faces a massive challenge on the road against the top-ranked Georgia Bulldogs, but can chaos give the Commodores a fighting chance? Corey Burton and Mike Huseman break down Vanderbilt’s need to shake off conservative play-calling and unleash quarterback Jared Curtis, questioning if opening up the offense and playing with tempo is the key to competing in Athens. Issues of team identity, coaching adjustments, and the impact of former standout Diego Pavia are front and center as Vanderbilt searches for answers on both sides of the ball.

Key topics include first-down efficiency, red zone execution, and the importance of generating havoc plays to disrupt Georgia’s rhythm. The conversation digs into defensive mindset shifts, explosive plays, and special teams matchups—while pondering if the Commodores can create enough turnovers and unpredictability to upset the Bulldogs and build confidence for the rest of the season. Is chaos the recipe for a Vanderbilt shocker?

Vanderbilt's Coaches Need to Get on the Same Page About Jared Curtis AND this offense

Locked On Podcast Network — Mon, 28 Sep 2026 08:00:00 GMT

Vanderbilt Commodores’ coaching staff risks holding back star freshman Jared Curtis as an inconsistent offensive identity clouds the team’s potential.

REACTION: Vanderbilt FALLS to Auburn 21-15, Offense NEEDS to Find Identity FAST

Locked On Podcast Network — Sun, 27 Sep 2026 03:05:54 GMT

Clark Lea and the Vanderbilt Commodores fall 21-15 to the Auburn Tigers. This offense lacks identity and seemed lost most of the game. The inconsistency will grow into a larger problem as the season progresses. Defense had a good showing and Special teams giving up a punt block for TD is back breaking.

Plus this team racked up a bunch of penalties and let a winnable game slip.
