GAME LOG
Beginning season as backup Kukuk will not begin the 2026 season as Louisiana Tech's starting quarterback, Matt Belinson of the Ruston Daily Leader reports.
Impact Kukuk had the chance to log first-team reps in the spring with Blake Baker still working back from a torn ACL, but Baker will ultimately be the QB1 for the Bulldogs. With that being said, Kukuk's chances at seeing the field this season aren't null. The 6-foot-1 senior will be ready to go, pending an injury or unsatisfactory play by Baker.
JULY 20 • ROTOWIRE
Will log first-team reps Kukuk will log first-team reps Louisiana Tech's spring camp, Matt Belinson of the Ruston Daily Leader reports.
Impact Blake Baker (knee) remains out, so Kukuk is still Louisiana Tech's best-available quarterback. During 2025, he logged more than 1,000 all-purpose yards and eight touchdowns. Using his feet, Kukuk recorded 98 rushing attempts for 609 yards and five TDs.
MARCH 23 • ROTOWIRE
Balanced output in win Kukuk completed 9 of 19 passes for 114 yards, one touchdown and one interception during Tuesday's 23-14 win versus Coastal Carolina. He also had 19 rushes for 121 yards.
Impact Kukuk struggled a bit as a passer, but he was dynamic with his legs, rushing for over 120 yards in his third straight game. The junior quarterback clearly has some developing to do in regards to throwing the football, but he's proven he's a dynamic athlete and that should continue to earn him opportunities, at Louisiana Tech or elsewhere.

Runs all over Bears Kukuk went 8-for-13 for 87 yards against Missouri State on Saturday. However, he also ran 16 times for 172 yards and three scores.
Impact Kudos to Louisiana Tech and Kukuk. With the third-string quarterback under center, the Bulldogs won two games to finish the regular season 7-5. The guys who were ahead of Kukuk are both out for the season, so he will get the call in the bowl game. Expect a lot of running the ball.
NOVEMBER 29, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Big day on the ground Kukuk went 13-for-20 for 118 yards, but also ran 19 times for 143 yards and two touchdowns, Saturday against Liberty.
Impact Kukuk started the year as the third-string quarterback, but was elevated to starter owing to two season-ending injuries ahead of him. Clearly, you can see from these numbers were his strength lies. His job is to throw it reasonably well and then contribute in the running game, so expect to see that next week against Missouri State.

Louisiana Tech has pulled off a stunning comeback to beat Liberty 34-28 in overtime
NOVEMBER 23, 2025 • Associated Press
To serve as starter Kukuk will start Saturday's game against Liberty, Bleed Tech Blue reports.
Impact Kukuk, a third-string quarterback just a few weeks ago, will step into a starting role after Evan Bullock (undisclosed) was ruled out for the remainder of the 2025 campaign. Starter Blake Baker also sustained a season-ending injury in November. Kukuk has some rushing upside, but he hasn't shown much promise as a passer.
NOVEMBER 17, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Does a bit on the ground Kukuk went 5-for-8 for 24 yards and an interception and ran nine times for 39 yards against Wazzu on Saturday.
Impact Kukuk and Evan Bullock split time under center with Blake Baker (knee) done for the season. Neither threw the ball well, but Kukuk's 39 rushing yards outpaced Bullock's 36 passing yards, so he probably has the edge coming into the final two games. Important games, to be noted, because the Bulldogs are one win away from bowl eligibility.
NOVEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Backing up Bullock Kukuk isn't starting Saturday's game against Washington State, Cougfan.com reports.
Impact Kukuk shared playing time with Evan Bullock last week after starting QB Blake Baker (knee) went down with a season-ending injury. However, Louisiana Tech has opted for Bullock under center to start Saturday's game. Considering they split work previously, it wouldn't be shocking if Bullock yielded some work to Kukuk.
NOVEMBER 15, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Sees action against Delaware Kukuk went 3-for-3 for 66 yards and ran nine times for 28 yards against Delaware on Saturday.
Impact After Blake Baker left the game, both Evan Bullock and Kukuk saw time under center. Bullock played more, but Kukuk played better. If Baker is out against Wazzu next week, maybe Kukuk gets the shot to start.
NOVEMBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Healthy but not starting Thursday Kukuk is available but did not start Thursday's game at Kennesaw State, Kai Millette of The Sentinel reports.
Impact Kukuk, who was officially listed as questionable for Thursday's contest, is reportedly available for the game after a multi-week absence following his injury in Week 3. Blake Baker took over the starting job in Kukuk's absence and is keeping the job for now despite Kukuk now being available.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Listed as questionable Kukuk (undisclosed) is listed as questionable for Louisiana Tech's game against Kennesaw State.
Impact Kukuk wasn't expected to play, as Blake Baker has gotten the start for the Bulldogs in recent weeks. Still, Louisiana Tech could be without its top backup under center, which would force Mason Welch into that role.
OCTOBER 9, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Expected to play Week 7 Kukuk (undisclosed) is expected to play Thursday's game at Kennesaw State, Matt Belinson of the Ruston Daily Leader reports.
Impact Louisiana Tech's latest game, Week 5 at UTEP, did not include Kukuk. For then, the Bulldogs' starting quarterback is Blake Baker, who logged two fumbles (both lost) and an interception. Kukuk's 2025 stats, three games, include only one turnover.
OCTOBER 6, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Not on injury report Kukuk (undisclosed) is not on the injury report and will be available to face UTEP on Saturday.
Impact Kukuk was questionable to play in this Week 5 matchup, but the signal-caller is not only off the injury report, but he could also recover his starting role. Kukuk's return should send Blake Baker to a backup role.

SEPTEMBER 27, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
DNP for Week 4 Kukuk (undisclosed) did not play during Louisiana Tech's 30-20 win Saturday against Southern Miss.
Impact In place of Kukuk, Blake Baker impressed. He logged 15 completed passes for 239 yards and a rushing touchdown Saturday, impressively all without any turnovers. Currently, Louisiana Tech's next game is Sept. 27 at UTEP.
SEPTEMBER 21, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Partaking in warmups Kuluk (undisclosed) is warming up ahead of Saturday's game against Southern Miss, but Blake Baker will get the start, Jeremy Bryant of KTVE 10 HARD 14 reports.
Impact Kukuk appears as though he'll be available after apparently dealing with an undisclosed injury. Blake Baker will get the start but the team will have Kukuk active in case Baker struggles or gets hurt.
SEPTEMBER 20, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Iffy for Week 4 Kukuk's status is up in the air for Saturday's game against Southern Miss due to an undisclosed injury, Matt Belinson of the Ruston Daily Leader reports.
Impact Kukuk's playing time is trending downward after beginning the season as Lousiana Tech's starting quarterback. He attempted just three passes in Week 3 while Blake Baker handled most of the playing time. Even if Kukuk is healthy, he may serve as Baker's backup.
SEPTEMBER 16, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Seemingly done as starter Kukuk went 2-for-3 for 44 yards, one touchdown, and one interception against NMSU on Saturday. He also ran four times for 40 yards.
Impact As much as Kukuk struggled against LSU last week, it seemed unlikely he would lose the starting gig over it. Yeah, about that. Blake Baker played the vast majority of the starts in this breezy conference win, and he played much better than Kukuk as well. Seems like Kukuk is now in the backup role.

Struggles against LSU Kukuk went 12-for-18 for 50 yards and ran five times for 16 yards against LSU on Saturday.
Impact While these aren't good numbers, Kukuk was making his first start against an FBS team, and it happened to be on the road against LSU. Blake Baker saw time in the fourth quarter, but it would be excessive to move on from Kukuk as the starter because he couldn't carve up the LSU Tigers in Death Valley.
