Mark Stoops, Will Levis, Octavious Oxendine break down fall scrimmage

The Kentucky football team participated in what should be its final scrimmage of fall camp on Saturday, a head-to-head battle of offense vs. defense just two weeks away from kick-off.

How did the Wildcats look? Have head coach Mark Stoops tell you, with quarterback Will Levis and defensive lineman Octavious Oxendine providing their thoughts, as well.

He also shed light on the running back position, wide receiver play, Jordan Dingle emerging at the tight end position, Will Levis’ growth, the backup quarterbacks and more.
