Bruce Pearl knows that No. 1 Auburn will be challenged at Vanderbilt as the Tigers try to bounce back from their first Southeastern Conference loss on Tuesday in Nashville, Tenn.

Vanderbilt currently sits 17-6 (5-5 SEC) and has home wins over Tennessee and Kentucky. When looking at where the game falls on the schedule, it presents itself as somewhat of a trap game for Auburn, coming between games against Florida and Alabama.
