Preseason outlook
Entering the season, Vanderbilt was picked by the media attending the SEC's media days in October to finish 4th in the SEC East, behind Tennessee, Kentucky and two-time defending national champion Florida.[2]
Vanderbilt lost two starters from last year's team—2007 SEC-player of the year Derrick Byars (19.1 ppg) and shooting guard, Dan Cage (11.2 ppg) – and return three starters—swingman Shan Foster, point guard Alex Gordon and power forward Ross Neltner.
Shan Foster was the Commodores' second leading scorer last season (15.6 ppg) and is the third leading returning scorer in the SEC. Foster was selected by the SEC media to the pre-season all-SEC second team. Alex Gordon had only 51 turnovers last season, tops among starting SEC point guards, and his 2.22-to-1 assist-to-turnover ratio was fourth best in the SEC. Neltner provided a versatile presence inside, averaging 5.7 rebounds per game, dishing out 74 assists and hitting 11-of-28 attempts from three-point range.
Sophomores Jermaine Beal and George Drake and freshman Keegan Bell are expected to compete for the shooting guard spot vacated by Cage. The Commodores appear set at center, where senior Alan Metcalfe and freshman Andrew (A.J.) Ogilvy will share time. Metcalfe missed part of last season with a foot injury, while Ogilvy comes highly touted after spending four years at the Australian Institute of Sport. Other newcomers expected to vie for playing time are guard Keegan Bell and forwards Andre Walker and Darshawn McClellan.[3]

Game 5. Vanderbilt (5–0) defeated Bradley (4–2) 95–86 in the championship game of the South Padre Island Shootout on November 24, 2007. A.J. Oglivy scored 23 points, and Shan Foster 22, to lead the Commodores. After the Commodores raced to an 18-point halftime lead (53–35), Bradley senior point guard Daniel Ruffin led the Braves back to within 85–84 late in the game. But Alex Gordon hit a 10-foot jump shot and sank four free throws in the final 30 seconds as the Commodores pulled away.[4] Ruffin—the half-brother of former Indiana All-American A.J. Guyton – finished with 23 points and 6 assists. Bradley (22–13 last season, MVC: 10–8, 4th) was picked to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference this season by the league's coaches, media and sports information directors, behind unanimous first-place selection Southern Illinois.[5]
Game 6. Vanderbilt (6–0) defeated South Alabama (4–3) 91–88 in double overtime on November 29, 2007. Shan Foster scored 26 points, as the Commodores rallied from a 59–51 deficit with 12:02 left. Andrew Oglivy had 19 points and 8 rebounds, while Ross Neltner added 15.

Game 7. Vanderbilt (7–0) beat Georgia Tech (3–4) 92–79 on December 1, 2007. The Yellow Jackets led briefly 2–0, but Shan Foster hit a 3 to give the Commodores a lead they would not relinquish. Vanderbilt led by as many as 28 points in the second half before emptying its bench. Foster finished with 17 points, while Andrew Oglivy had 16 and Alan Metcalfe 15. Anthony Morrow, Tech's leading scorer, had only 2 points with 5 minutes to go, when Vandy led 86–58. He came into the game averaging 19.0 ppg.[7] Georgia Tech was picked to finish seventh in the ACC by the league's media.[8]
Game 8. No. 23 Vanderbilt (8–0) (AP, No. 25 Coaches poll) remained perfect with a tight 83–80 win over Wake Forest (5–2) on December 5, 2007. Shan Foster scored 26 points to go with 7 rebounds, and A.J. Oglivy scored 23, for the Commodores, who are 8–0 for only the fifth time ever. The game was close throughout, and neither team led by more than six points in the second half. Harvey Hale and James Johnson led Wake with 18 points apiece.[9] The Demon Deacons (2006: 15–16, 5–11 (10th)) were picked to finish 11th by the ACC's media.[10]
Game 9. No. 23 Vanderbilt (9–0) (AP, No. 25 Coaches poll) used a fast start to defeat Lipscomb (4–6) 90–67 on December 8, 2007. A.J. Oglivy scored a career-high 26 points, and Shan Foster had 21 for the Commodores, who raced out to an 18–4 lead and never led by less than 8 points after that.[11]
Game 10. No. 20 Vanderbilt (10–0) (AP, No. 21 Coaches poll) rallied from an 18-point deficit early in the second half to beat DePaul (2–4) 91–85 in overtime in Chicago on December 12, 2007. With Shan Foster and A.J. Oglivy both struggling, the Commodores trailed 58–40 after Dar Tucker scored on an alley-opp dunk with 15:15 to go. Vanderbilt seemed to revive, finally tying the score at 79–79 with 22 seconds left. Foster and Oglivy, the SEC's top two leading scorers, each finished with 19 points.[12]
Game 11. No. 17 Vanderbilt (11–0) (AP and Coaches polls) had to overcome a large second half deficit for the second game in a row, downing Tennessee State (3–7) 83–74 on December 22, 2007. Playing after a 10-day break for exams, the Commodores trailed 56–47 with 11:53 to go. However, they stormed back with an 18–4 run to lead 65–60 with 7:33 left. Shan Foster had 22 points and Alex Gordon 16 for Vanderbilt, while Gerald Robinson led all scorers with 24 for the Tigers.[13]
Game 12. No. 15 Vanderbilt (12–0) (AP and Coaches polls) beat UT Martin (5–8) 92–85 on December 29, 2007. The Commodores jumped out to a 13-point lead in the first half. However, Vandy's starters let UTM go on a 10–0 to start the 2nd half, even losing the lead at one point. Shan Foster hit a 3-pointer with the score tied at 83, and the Dores never trailed after that. A.J. Ogilvy led Vanderbilt with 21 points and just missed a double-double with 9 rebounds. UT-Martin's Lester Hudson (3rd in NCAA in ppg) led all scorers with 36 points.[14]
Game 13. No. 15 Vanderbilt (13–0) (AP and Coaches polls) set a season high for points scored during a 97–73 rout of Iona (5–9) on December 29, 2007. The Commodores achieved their best ever start, bettering a 12–0 start in 2003–04. After trading baskets for much of the first half, the Commodores built a 5-point lead at halftime. Unlike their previous game, the Commodores went on a 26–5 run to start the second half, putting the game out of reach and allowing the walk-on players to get some playing time. Vanderbilt continued to display a lax defense, but more than made up for it by shooting 56% from the floor and 55% from beyond the arc. Vanderbilt had four players in double figures, led by A.J. Ogilvy (who again just missed a double-double with 20 points and 9 rebounds) and Shan Foster (20 points).[15]
Game 14. No. 15 Vanderbilt (14–0) (AP and Coaches polls) put together a solid effort in beating Rice (3–9) 76–58 on January 3, 2008. The Commodores used a stifling defense to take control of the game from the onset, forcing a season-high 24 turnovers. Shan Foster netted 24 points, while A.J. Ogilvy added 14 points and 9 rebounds and Alex Gordon had 11 points.[16]
Game 15. No. 15 Vanderbilt (15–0) (AP and Coaches polls) overcame deficits of 9 and 14 points to beat Massachusetts (11–3) 97–88 on January 5, 2008, tying a season high for points scored. Vandy was led by senior guard Shan Foster, who scored 32 points and hit 8 3-pointers, and freshman center A.J. Ogilvy, who notched a double-double with 25 points and 11 rebounds. Sophomore point guard Jermaine Beal added a career-high 15 points for the Commodores. Ricky Harris led the Minutemen with 25 points.[17]
Game 16. No. 13 Vanderbilt (16–0, 1–0) (AP, No. 12 Coaches polls) won its SEC opener by beating South Carolina (8–7, 0–1) by a score of 80–73 on January 9, 2008. Vanderbilt was led by freshman sensation A.J. Ogilvy with 25 points, while seniors Alex Gordon and Shan Foster had 13 points apiece. The Gamecocks were led by Devan Downey, who had 22 points. After hitting a 3-pointer in the game, Shan Foster became the Commodores' all-time leading 3-point shooter.[18]
Game 17. No. 13 Vanderbilt (16–1, 1–1) (AP, No. 12 Coaches poll) lost its first game of the season, 79–73 in double-overtime to Kentucky (7–7, 1–0) at Rupp Arena. The loss snapped the Commodores' 4-game winning streak against the Wildcats. Vanderbilt entered the game as one of five remaining unbeaten teams in men's Division I basketball. Kentucky controlled most of the game, taking a 16-point lead five minutes into the second half. The Commodores, who never led in regulation, tied the game on a three-pointer by Shan Foster with 14 seconds left to force overtime. The teams traded leads in the first overtime, but Vandy needed an A.J. Ogilvy-putback with 1.8 seconds left to force a second overtime. The Wildcats outscored Vanderbilt 7–1 in the second overtime to win the game. Patrick Patterson led the Wildcats with 23 points and 12 rebounds, while Ramel Bradley added 20 points and Joe Crawford 17. The Commodores were led by Foster's 20 points and Ogilvy's 16 points and 5 rebounds.[19]
Game 18. No. 16 Vanderbilt (16–2, 1–2) (AP, No. 14 Coaches poll) lost 80–60 to No. 6 Tennessee (15–1, 3–0) (AP, No. 7 Coaches poll) in Knoxville, TN, its second loss in a row. The Vols held the Commodores well below their season scoring average (86.0 ppg) and limited them to 3 three-pointers. Vanderbilt stayed close for about 11 minutes, but a 16–3 run gave Tennessee a 33–18 lead with 3:59 left in the first half. After halftime, the Vols used a 17–6 run to take a 59–38 lead, but the Commodores responded with a 15–2 run to make it 61–53 with 7:48 to go. They would get no closer. Wayne Chism led the Vols with 18 points and 18 rebounds, while Shan Foster led the Commodores with 14 points and 6 rebounds.[20]
Game 19. No. 16 Vanderbilt (17–2, 2–2) (AP, No. 14 Coaches poll) defeated LSU (7–11, 0–4) 92–76, ending a two-game losing skid.[21]

The Bulldogs led 38–37 at halftime, but Vanderbilt stormed out of the gates in the second half as they opened on a 29–11 run. The Commodores won the game at a final score of 86–74 with 29 points from Shan Foster and 23 points from Alex Gordon.[29]
Game 28. No. 18 Vanderbilt (24–4, 9–4) (AP, No. 14 Coaches poll) faced their toughest test of the season as they hosted in-state rivals No. 1 Tennessee Volunteers (25–3, 11–2) (AP and coaches polls).
