Mark Stoops' brother, Bob, wins XFL Championship

The Stoops trophy room just got a new addition. Bob Stoops, brother of Kentucky head coach, Mark Stoops, and longtime Oklahoma Sooners frontman, won the XFL Championship as the head coach of the Arlington Renegades on Saturday.

The XFL has come a long way since its debut in the late 1990s, back when Vince McMahon had the maniac idea to essentially combine football with professional wrestling. While there is no longer a scramble for a loose ball to replace the pregame coin flip, a practice that actually led to multiple injuries, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson keeps that WWE flare as the co-owner in the league’s third relaunch.
