How Kentucky has fared against FCS competition under Mark Stoops

FCS week has arrived for Kentucky football as Mark Stoops and his coaching staff get ready for an old-fashioned Youngstown reunion on Saturday. Before that happens, a football game must be played at high noon.

Youngstown State is the opponent this year, and the upstart Penguins have been an FCS surprise behind. strong rushing attack and an aggressive defense. The Missouri Valley Conference squad is now in the top 25 and will head to Lexington with a ton of confidence this season.

Under Stoops, Kentucky has been able to take care of business against FCS opponents owning an 8-0 overall record, but the Cats have not been a cover machine in these contests.
