2019 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE AND GATEWAY TO SEASON

BIG BLUE FANS FOR

FOOTBALL

2019

Coach Mark Stoops enters the 2019 Football Season
riding the crest of three consecutive bowl appearances
with excellent prospects to make it four in a row.
In the entire history of UK football, only one coach
has led UK football teams to four consecutive bowl
games (Rich Brooks 2006-09). Coach Stoops can
match that record in 2019, a decade later. Noting that
Coach Phillips led the Cats to their 5th consecutive
bowl appearance in 2010.

UK Coaches Decry UK'S Turnover Rate
For Good Reason"

The 2017 Cats did a much better job protecting its possessions than the 2016 Cats had done.
