UK coach Mark Stoops broke down his team's win over Mississippi State Jon Hale, Louisville Courier Journal
LEXINGTON, Ky. — Kentucky football's first win upset of Mississippi State has earned Mark Stoops' team another piece of history.
The Wildcats moved into the USA TODAY Amway Coaches Poll, at No. 17, marking the first time the team had been ranked in the top 25 since 2007.
Star running back Benny Snell ran for 165 yards and four touchdowns, and the Kentucky defense held the previously top-10-ranked Mississippi State offense to just 201 total yards in a 28-7 win Saturday.
