Kentucky fans are officially over Mark Stoops after shutout loss to Louisville

Kentucky fans are well aware that Mark Stoops is the longest-tenured head coach in the SEC.

A good amount of them want that to change immediately after Saturday’s embarrassing 41-0 loss at Louisville in the latest installment of the Governor’s Cup rivalry. The 41-point margin is the largest win ever for Louisville over Kentucky, and that ugly fact seemed like a suitable taking off point for angry Wildcats fans on Saturday afternoon.

    And for the ones who didn’t know that fact, well, they were still very angry and ready for a change on the sideline in Lexington. Stoops has survived this long after taking the Kentucky job in 2013, and he even managed to pull off double-digit-win seasons in 2018 and 2021, which is a huge accomplishment at UK.

    But Saturday’s shellacking finished off a 5-7 season, which was only slightly better than last year’s 4-8 mark. Kentucky fans took to social media in waves to proclaim that Stoops has seen better days and that better days will come if Kentucky finally makes a change for the 2026 season.

    Kentucky actually won 3 in a row recently but finished the season with a thud, with a blowout loss at Vanderbilt last week preceding Saturday’s beatdown at Louisville.

    Here is just a sampling of the anger coming from Big Blue Nation after Saturday’s loss:

    To whom it may concern,Pay Mark Stoops the $37 million he's owed within 60 days, shed a tear and move on with your life.Sincerely,All of us

    I appreciate Marks Stoops. He did a lot for Kentucky footballIt's absolutely time for the Mark Stops era to end Both of these statements can be true. #BBN

    “Louisville is a racehorse and Kentucky is a donkey.” – Jimbo Fisher, Mark Stoops’ mentor at FSU, to open halftime.

    Genuinely, if Mark Stoops loses this game, he should not make it to the locker room with a job.I've said that a lot this season, but this would be incredibly embarassing.

    Stoops is certainly one part of the problem, and it's my hope he's no longer UK's coach after today, but this is an athletic department that simply hasn't had many things to be proud of in its revenue sports programs in the NIL era. A long time of mediocrity.

    Thank you @UKMitchBarnhart for sinking another program and killing any hope for Kentucky football under Mark Stoops. You truly are one of a kind when it comes to ruining UK sports.

    Kentucky is going to end up being blown out in 5 of its 9 P4 games this year. Three TD+ losses to South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Vanderbilt and most likely Louisville. Had a little bit more fight compared to 2024 (a very low bar) but at the end of the day, just a bad team.

    As a program and an Athletic Department, I don’t see how you can sell your fans on running it back after these last two games to end the season
