For Mark Stoops, Saturday is a homecoming away from home.
His hometown school, the Youngstown State Penguins, come to Kroger Field to play Stoops’ Kentucky Wildcats at noon on the SEC Network.
“I’m really proud that they’re coming in and I’m looking forward to it,” the UK head football coach said Monday. “I know how tough they are, what type of program (they are) and the history they have. They’re not going to be intimidated. That’s all good and there’s a connection there but at the end of the day, they’re coming in to beat us and play well. We have a job to do.”
