Yesterday had to feel like a crowning achievement for Mark Stoops. He’s been here for six years and has had many ups and downs. But it seems as if the program is finally turned around as the Cats are headed to their third straight bowl game and this one is the biggest yet.
It was announced yesterday that the Cats will be a part of the Citrus Bowl in Orlando Florida to take on the Penn State Nitany Lions on New Years Day.
Thanks to a 9-3 record and finishing second in the SEC, the Cats were awarded with one of the biggest bowl games in the program’s history and certainly the biggest one of the modern era.
