Vanderbilt went 3–5–1 overall and 1–3–1 in conference play, finishing ninth in the Southeastern Conference. They played their six home games at Dudley Field in Nashville, Tennessee. Vanderbilt began the season by shutting out Middle Tennessee and Chicago, but did not score a point over the next four games before shutting Sewanee for their third win of the season.
