Tennessee-Chattanooga has been added to Vanderbilt's 2003 football schedule.

The Mocs will visit Vanderbilt Stadium Sept. 6. The game is significant because Vanderbilt and Tennessee-Chattanooga once played on a fairly routine basis but have not met since the Commodores escaped with a 7-0 win in the 1985 season opener.

Also, former Vanderbilt Coach Steve Sloan (1973-74) is the athletic director at Tennessee-Chattanooga. Sloan coached the Commodores to a 12-9-2 record, which included two victories over Tennessee-Chattanooga.

The addition of the Mocs means Vandy will have seven home games again next year.
