Sights & Sounds: The Ohio State University Marching Band Stopped by Football Practice to Kick Off Michigan Week

Michigan week in Columbus is wall-to-wall tradition and Sunday evening brought one of the more fun events on the calendar as members of the Ohio State University Marching Band stopped by football practice to jam with the players.

Above, we have defensive end Jalyn Holmes conducting the band as they perform “Buckeye Swag.” And here it is from another angle:
