WATCH: Mark Stoops after Kentucky's loss to South Carolina
After one of the worst losses of his tenure at Kentucky, Mark Stoops was almost at a loss for words. Stoops admitted he did not see the Cats’ 31-6 loss to South Carolina coming, and made it clear the performance was unacceptable — by both players and staff.
“We’ve been beaten pretty badly by some really good football teams but I felt like our team always fought back,” Stoops said to start his postgame press conference. “We talk about it all the time. You get punched, you get hit, you swing back. Very disappointed. Not happy with us, our coaching, our response, the way we played.
“Today, it didn’t look like we’re a very well-coached team, and it didn’t look like a team that really wanted to respond. No coach-speak here. That’s 100% on me and on us. No excuses. They beat us in every facet and we didn’t respond.”
More from Stoops on what exactly went wrong below and how the Cats move forward. No. 1 Georgia comes to town next weekend.

SC invests nearly $1M into Darlington pump station upgrade
DARLINGTON COUNTY, S.C. (WPDE) — The City of Darlington received a $957,000 grant from the South Carolina Rural Infrastructure Authority (RIA) to upgrade the Woodcreek Pump Station.
The project eliminates the current station on Country Club Road and will flow to the Woodcreek pump station while it is being renovated.
The city said that this will better serve those who live within the Darlington County Club by utilizing newer technology.
