WATCH: Ole Miss trolls Louisville football
Ole Miss football released a video trolling their upcoming opponent, the Louisville Cardinals.
On Friday night, Ole Miss football’s official twitter page tweeted a graphic stating “We Love Louisville” as the caption for their video.
The video goes on to introduce various Ole Miss players from Louisville and they all talk about how much they love where they are from. They also talk about how much they love the culture of Louisville, the food, and the people there.
It’s after that, that one begins to realize the classy gesture to the Louisville Cardinals is actually a well-played troll job. The Ole Miss players are talking about Louisville, Mississippi, not Louisville, Kentucky.
Ole Miss quarterback Matt Corral
The Rebels return a man who’s already etched his name among the school’s greats at the quarterback position, Matt Corral. While the Rebels lost superstar receiver Elijah Moore in the offseason to the NFL (New York Jets), they return one of the best trigger men in all of college football in Corral.

Last year, he became just the fourth SEC player ever to finish as the NCAA leader in total offense per game (384.9). He was surgically accurate with the football, completing over 70 percent of his passes for 3,337 yards, while tossing in 29 touchdowns and 14 interceptions.
His stats last season were marvelous across the board. Corral finished in the top 15 in the country in four major passing categories: fifth in passing yards per game (333.7), seventh in passing touchdowns (29), ninth in passing efficiency (177.6) and 11th in passing yards per completion (14.5). He also displayed his dynamic running ability in the open field, gashing opposing defenses to the tune of over 500 rushing yards and four touchdowns on 112 rushing attempts.

Corral also competed in The Opening, one of the nation’s top prospect camps and 7-on-7 tournaments.
The Ole Miss Rebels and the Louisville Cardinals square off on Monday. The Labor Day matchup is slated for 8:00 p.m. EST. The game will be televised on ESPN.
