Vandy schedules 2 future non-conference opponents, including one in 2029?
Start getting ready now, Nashville.
You can already predict what the hype videos will say when it finally comes around like “13 years in the making” or “the battle of black and gold has finally arrived.”
Vanderbilt agreed with Purdue on a home-and-way-in-the-future-home for games that will be played in 2019 at Purdue and … 2029 in Nashville.
Pleased to announce home-and-home series with Vanderbilt – 9/7/19 in WL, 9/8/29 in Nashville. #BoilerUp pic.twitter.com/AMBJuyFXav

@CBoers @BoilerFootball my 2 year old will have her driver’s license when we play at Vandy. That’s wild. — Pete Helland (@petehelland) February 18, 2016
@VolunteerBrain @BoilerFootball Hard to say since those players in '29 are currently in 1st grade. LOL.

That wasn’t the only non-conference opponent the Commodores scheduled as they booked Georgia State for 2024 and 2025.
Vanderbilt, Georgia State add home/home series; 2024 at GSU, 2025 at VU
