FILE - In this Nov. 17, 2018, file photo, Kentucky head coach Mark Stoops looks on before an NCAA college football game against Middle Tennessee, in Lexington, Ky. Stoops knows that duplicating last season's success is asking a lot. After all, the Wildcats won 10 games for the first time since 1977 _ including a victory in the Citrus Bowl, which was their first postseason win since 2008. Career performances from defensive standout Josh Allen and running back Benny Snell helped make it possible, but they've departed along with many significant contributors.
