Kent State Football Look Alikes and Oddities

By Tucker Harlin

I was minding my own business scrolling through the interwebs on Wednesday night when a certain comparison involving Kent State quarterback Devin Kargman flashed across my timeline on the app formerly known as Twitter.

Kargman looks suspiciously similar to a certain rock singer from a band that first became popular in the 1990s.

That’s right, the Golden Flashes quarterback is actually just Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers.

Kargman has already given it away three times this season, something he could very well do again on Saturday if the Vols live up to the billing on defense and take it on the other side.

The defensive line could create some scar tissue if it squeezes Kargman’s soul in the backfield, that is if the Kent State offensive line can’t stop it.

Kargman’s not from California so that spared him about two more bad Chili Peppers jokes, but he plays in the MAC so he’ll occasionally play in snow.

I was able to locate a few more strange look alikes and combos

If you obsess over college basketball brackets but can’t stand Joe Lunardi and want to find another source to trust, your go to is Jerry Palm.

But did you know the CBS bracketologist is actually just Golden Flashes tight end Conner Muldowney in disguise?

My final Golden Flashes look alike isn’t the closest look alike you’ll find, but he looks like the younger brother of Denver Broncos quarterback.

That would be Kent State wide receiver Preston Hopperton.

At least if a pick is thrown near Hopperton he can blame Kargman for letting the Vols defense take it on the other side.

Preston isn’t the only Hopperton in this compilation as tight end Hunter Hopperton looks like he belongs in a certain legendary animated TV show that has predicted numerous events in the future.

That’s right, Hunter looks like he could be any number of Simpsons characters.

I’ll just compare him to Barney and leave it at that.

If you want to see what an offspring of Nico Iamaleava and Zach Edey would look like, look no further than Golden Flashes tight end Will Hook.

For this next one, I guarantee you’ve never heard of another man with the last name “Federer” not called Roger.

I’m going to introduce you to Kent State wide receiver, who is trying his absolute hardest to fit in with the tennis legend’s last name.

Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t see many similarities.

I’ve picked on offensive players a lot in this piece, so I figured it’s time to shift to the defense for a bit.

Defensive end Stephen Daley, who actually plays quite a bit for the Golden Flashes, looks like he could be a member of the Aidoo family.

We’ll round it out with a special teamer, long snapper Gus Goodell.

Though he might share a last name with the NFL commissioner, Goodell looks like every young man in a southern, meth addled rural community.

That’s all I got for this new experiment against Kent State. I hope to have several more look alikes for Oklahoma next week.
