adamluckettksr

On Monday, Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops took the stage at Kroger Field and started the week by fielding questions with the media. KSR was in the house as Stoops fielded questions regarding Josh Heupel‘s offense, the current state of the Kentucky passing game, and what the Wildcats accomplished during the bye week.

Immediately following the press conference, Nick Roush and myself jumped in front of the camera to recap what we heard from Kentucky’s head coach in KSR’s latest Rapid Reaction. The Wildcats are entering a big moment on Saturday night. It’s sink or swim time for this football program.

“When we’re behind the chains we are very inefficient. We need to execute better. We need to be able to keep people off balance. We want to grow as a program,” Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops told reporters on Monday. “You’ve heard me talk about it. We’ve discussed this. We can sit there and second guess ourself and look at that last time we took the field.”

“We can sit there and run the ball maybe 20 more times and have a better chance to win the game, but are we really growing as an organization? Are we really winning and becoming the team that we want to become? We’re never going to stop working at that.”
