Video: This GoPro footage of players in the tunnel before a college football game is pure class

As Kilkenny hurler Michael Fennelly once said, this would put the hairs standing on the back of your arse.

As Kilkenny hurler Michael Fennelly once said, this would put the hairs standing on the back of your arse.

American Football is often ahead of the game compared to other sports in terms of fans being able to see what goes on behind the scenes and so it proved once again ahead of Texas A&M’s clash with Lamar Cardinals at the weekend.

One Texas A&M player was fitted with a GoPro camera that captured footage of a group of very pumped up players in the tunnel before the game, with Kanye West’s ‘Power’ providing a fitting soundtrack before the players emerged onto a packed out Kyle Field and a rapturous reception from over 104,000 supporters.

In that sort of mood, it’ll hardly surprise you to learn that they went on to win 73-3; needless to say, we want to see this in the GAA as soon as possible, maybe even in time for the All-Ireland hurling final replay in a little under three weeks’ time.

Class.
