Will Stein admits Kentucky 'Let the Moment Get the Best of Us' vs. Alabama

Will Stein said the “moment” got too big during Kentucky’s loss to Alabama, even as he credits what he learned in that week for the Wildcats’ bounce-back. Speaking Tuesday on “The Triple Option” with Urban Meyer, Mark Ingram II and Rob Stone, Stein said his halftime message for the Texas A&M game was about staying locked in “one play, one focus at a time.” He described Kroger Field’s atmosphere as overwhelming and noted the mantra was to be “the eye of the storm.” Stein pointed to Tuesday practice—team run-on-run outcomes and physical thuds—as the separator. He added warmups in College Station felt different from Texas A&M’s.
