Mark Stoops and the Kentucky Wildcats went into The Swamp on Saturday night and scored a huge victory over the No. 12 Florida Gators, earning back-to-back wins over their SEC East foes for the first time since the 1970s.
Stoops also became Kentucky’s all-time coaching wins leader, passing the esteemed Bear Bryant.
So, as the clock was hitting 0:00 on Saturday night, Stoops got a well-deserved Gatorade bath, courtesy of his players:

Even with several running backs out, Kentucky managed to pull off the tough road win.
Kentucky is now 2-0 heading into a Week 3 home game against Youngstown State. Just imagine how good this team can be when it’s at full strength! There might be more Gatorade baths in Stoops’ future.
