Few things get the blood pumping quite like college football and all that comes with it, from the marching bands playing fight songs to raucous crowds of nearly 100,000 fans losing their minds to a well-crafted hype video.
No. 10 Michigan is hosting the game of the weekend against No. 3 Texas on Saturday and got a special hype video from one of their most successful alumni.
FOX released a video ahead of Saturday’s huge game narrated by 7-time Super Bowl champion and Michigan alum Tom Brady, who pointed out in the video that despite nearly 150 years of football, these two programs have only met one time, in the 2005 Rose Bowl.

Brady said in the video that Michigan’s pride is being tested in this game by a program with “just as much on the line and an equally renowned reputation.”
A game this big sells itself, but it never hurts to have a legend in the mix to add to the hype, and Brady showed he clearly has the voice for announcing.
Michigan had an easy 30-10 win over Fresno State in its season opener while Texas ran over Colorado State 52-0.
Big Blue is welcoming some high-profile newcomers to the Big Ten this season and has a number of huge matchups after this game, including a battle with USC in two weeks and Oregon in early November, both of who are making the move from the Pac 12 this year.
Texas will see Oklahoma and Georgia in back to back weeks in October, and both teams have aspirations of running the table and earning a bye in the playoff.
