Vanderbilt linebacker, Logan Patterson wants to dominate against Alabama this weekend.
Patterson is a senior linebacker for the Commodores. He has 13 total tackles and 0.5 tackles for loss on the season. The veteran linebacker wants to leave the Alabama game Saturday feeling as if he has nothing left in the tank.
“When I get back on the bus, I don’t want to be able to feel my shoulder, feel my neck,” Patterson told reporters. “I don’t want to be able to walk the next morning. I want to go out there and give it everything I’ve got, and I want to go dominate.”
This game holds extra weight in the Patterson household. His father Wes Patterson is a former Alabama quarterback. Wes was a reserved quarterback for the Crimson Tide in 1988.
Patterson had seven total tackles against Alabama in 2024 when Vanderbilt defeated Alabama 40-35.
