Vanderbilt football travels to its second straight road contest and its first SEC game of the season against No. 8 Missouri this weekend. On Saturday (3:15 p.m. CT, SEC Network), the two teams will meet at Faurot Field in Columbia, Missouri.

Vanderbilt's Diego Pavia arrived from New Mexico State as a graduate transfer along with his coach, Jerry Kill, and offensive coordinator, Tim Beck. They've provided a big boost to the Commodores’ offense. Pavia mostly relied on his legs in their first two games, but he threw for a season-high 270 yards and two touchdowns last week.
