On Saturday, the Kentucky Wildcats stunned the college football world with a 20–17 victory over the No. 6 Ole Miss Rebels at Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, marking their first road win against Ole Miss since 1978.
Despite entering the game unranked, Kentucky showed resilience, particularly on defense, recording four sacks and seven tackles for loss. They held Ole Miss to a mere 1-for-10 on third-down conversions, showcasing their defensive prowess.
After the game, head coach Mark Stoops celebrated the monumental win in style, as he was seen crowd surfing above his jubilant players in the locker room. The joyous moment was captured by star wide receiver Barion Brown, who contributed five receptions for 88 yards during the game.
