WATCH: Mark Stoops provides final pre-Vanderbilt thoughts

After a week off from game action, Mark Stoops and his team are ready to take the field again. Up next? An unexpectedly important matchup against the Vanderbilt Commodores.

Following Thursday’s practice, Stoops provided his final pregame thoughts ahead of Saturday’s showdown at Kroger Field. Throughout his six-minute interview with the media, he touched on the updated injury statuses of OL Courtland Ford and WR Hardley Gilmore, what he thinks of the ever-changing landscape of college football (specifically the news of the potential removal of the National Letter of Intent, which broke this week), how Kentucky can slow down Vanderbilt’s momentum coming off a program-defining win over Alabama, and plenty more.

Listen to everything Stoops had to say in his final pre-Vanderbilt press conference below. Kickoff against the Commodores is set for Saturday at 7:45 p.m. EST on the SEC Network.
