Mark Stoops is tied with Bear Bryant on Kentucky Football's all-time wins list

Move over, Bear Bryant. There is another name on top of Kentucky Football’s all-time wins list.

Stooooooooooooooooooooops

With Kentucky’s season-opening win over Miami (Ohio), Mark Stoops moved into a tie with the great Paul “Bear” Bryant with 60 wins each as the head football coach at the University of Kentucky. Until Stoops matched the Hall of Famer, Bryant was the school’s wins leader for almost seven decades.
