Kalen DeBoer has shown he can get his team up for the big game, but how will Alabama handle the aftermath?

On the heels of a wild win over Georgia, the top-ranked Tide head to Nashville on Saturday to face a Vanderbilt team that has been on a knife's edge nearly every week. 

Aside from a blowout of FCS Alcorn State, Vanderbilt has defeated Virginia Tech in overtime, lost 36-32 at Georgia State on a touchdown with 15 seconds left in the game, and suffered a heartbreaking, double-overtime defeat at No. 7 Missouri. 

So, while history and Alabama's 32-point average margin of victory this season suggest a Tide blowout, this Commodores team could be catching the giant at the right time to make things interesting.

Here is everything you need to know about Alabama vs. Vanderbilt, including TV and streaming options for the game.
