No one had to tell the players on this season’s Kentucky football team that last season didn’t exactly go as planned.
“I think it’s kind of a known,” said senior offensive lineman Eli Cox at SEC Football Media Days on Wednesday. “With the success we’ve had here before with (Coach Mark) Stoops, that’s just not our standard, not the way we want to be. There’s obviously a lot more talent than 7-5 in that room and in that building.”
And yet 7-5 overall is exactly where the Cats landed before the campaign ended with a thud, thanks to the shutout loss to Iowa in the Music City Bowl.
