Will Stein already making Kentucky Football history after scoring first signature win at No. 9 Texas A&M

Will Stein made immediate history as a head coach for Kentucky Football by securing his first signature win just three games into his tenure. This victory came against the No. 9 Texas A&M Aggies at their home stadium, marking the first top-10 road win for the Wildcats since 1978 and their first win over an SEC opponent since 1952.

Following a first-half half victory against Alabama, the Cats bounced back with a dominant 31-21 win over Texas A&M, signaling a promising start to Stein's season. This win also makes Stein the first UK head coach to defeat a top-25 team on the road during his first season, a significant milestone considering the program's past struggles with making bowl games under different coaches.

Kentucky is now poised for a bowl game for the first time since 2023, thanks to Stein's rapid turnaround.
