Kentucky Coach Will Stein's Father Joins Field Storm After Upset Win Over LSU
Video shows the elder Stein walking onto the field with arms raised amid fan celebration following the Wildcats' overtime victory.
Following the Kentucky Wildcats' dramatic overtime upset victory against No. 10 LSU, the father of Kentucky head coach Will Stein joined the ensuing field storm. Video footage captured the elder Stein slowly walking onto the field with his arms raised, seemingly in awe of the celebratory scene.
The Wildcats secured a 35-34 win after quarterback Kenny Minchey ran into the end zone for a two-point conversion in overtime. This victory marked Kentucky's first win over LSU in Lexington since 2007 and followed a similar 35-34 overtime win the previous week at South Carolina.
Fans rushed the field in Lexington after the decisive score. Among them was Will Stein's father, who was present for the celebration. This moment echoes a similar event in 2007 when the elder Stein also stormed the field after a Kentucky victory over LSU, a tradition that now continues with his son as the head coach.
