Will Stein’s dad storms the field after Kentucky’s upset win over LSU in beautiful college football scene

There were quite a few happy people in Lexington, Kentucky, on Saturday night after the Wildcats upset LSU in an overtime thriller, but it’s hard to imagine anyone being happier than Will Stein’s father, and there is video evidence to support it.

After LSU needed just two plays to score on its first possession in overtime to jump out to a 34-27 lead, the Wildcats were forced to respond, and respond they did. Running back CJ Baxter punched it into the end zone, which left Stein with a decision to make: kick the extra point and head into a second overtime or go for two and try to end the game in front of your home crowd.

Stein opted for the latter, and it paid off.

After a controversial flag on the first two-point conversion that was negated by a Kentucky timeout, quarterback Kenny Minchey trotted onto the field and walked right up the middle into the end zone to send Big Blue Nation into a frenzy with a 35-34 victory.

It was Kentucky’s second consecutive 35-34 overtime win after the Wildcats came back to win at South Carolina seven days prior.
