Bracket projection: Vanderbilt

A preseason top-20 team, the Vanderbilt Commodores were a major disappointment before awakening from a season-long slumber to compile an 11-4 record over its final 15 regular-season games. That impressive finishing kick allowed Kevin Stallings' squad to rocket up the SEC standings (they finished in a three-way tie for third place) and into the Big Dance. Now that they're in the Field of 68, the Commodores could be downright dangerous. Can Vandy keep up its dandy late-season play?
