Kent State Lineman Loses Mind on Sidelines, May Have Demons Inside Head

Kent State’s Jon Cunningham is a freshman, but he terrified at a senior level Tuesday night.

Cameras followed the 295-pound defensive tackle around during the Golden Flashes' matchup with the Toledo Rockets, presumably just to make sure he was OK. Cunningham stalked the edge of the field, pumping up teammates and attempting to shake the sad gremlins out of his skull with a series of aggressive jaw plyometrics. 

RedditCFB (h/t SB Nation’s Seth Rosenthal) posted a Vine of the antics. Sometimes, you have to exorcise the demons mid-game:

Unfortunately, Cunningham’s energy would be for naught. The Golden Flashes lost 30-20 to the Rockets and currently sit at 1-8 on the season.

Hang in there, sir. Seasons like this happen. You just have to support each other, light some candles and summon the dread lord Jaraxxus to come and devour the vile spirits howling inside your cerebral cortex. 

You know, just trust in your game plan.
