LOOK: Malik Cunningham trolls Kentucky during Senior Bowl
Louisville quarterback Malik Cunningham has spent the past week in Mobile, participating in the Senior Bowl. Practices have taken place over the past few days while the game took play on Saturday. Hoping to improve his stock before the NFL Draft, Cunningham is one of the few quarterbacks to head to Alabama.
One of the traditions at the Senior Bowl is swapping helmet logos with other players. Yes, even former rivals. Logos are then put on everyone’s helmets, causing for some fun during the game.
For Cunningham, he found a way to get a Kentucky logo on his hands. But he decided to take things to another level, placing the UK upside down and partially covered by an Ole Miss sticker. A hilarious move from the former Louisville quarterback.

Trolling rivals is going to occur, no matter the occasion. But Cunningham would more likely have some more juice behind the move had he ever beaten Kentucky. Spending five seasons with the Cardinals, Cunningham went 0-4 in appearances in the Governor’s Cup.
Cunningham did not have his best performance during the 2022 matchup, completing just three of six passes. That went for a total of 16 yards, with an interception being sprinkled in there as well. Kentucky was on the winning on, getting a 26-13 victory at Kroger Field — the fourth straight in the rivalry.
Louisville-Kentucky is one of the end of year ACC-SEC rivalries the two conferences puts on. A truly underrated matchup in college football, as most of the attention is on the basketball side. Especially within the state.
However, with both schools having recent success, the intensity dial has been turned up a few notches. Silly trolls such as this one from Cunningham just adds fuel to the fire.
