Sometimes it's tough to quantify the difference between winning and losing.
Vanderbilt's Chris Williams is having no such difficulty.

The Commodores' fifth-year senior offensive tackle is convinced that 16 plays over five games last fall were the difference in the team's 4-8 finish and a potential 9-3 record — a record that would have put Vanderbilt in the bowl game that has eluded the program since 1982.

Getting those plays to go for the Commodores, instead of against them, will be the focus heading into this season. It's the last chance for Williams and his 11 classmates to end that 24-year bowl drought and make just the fourth postseason appearance in the school's 117-year football history.
