If you weren’t already excited for football season, 1) you’re lying and 2) watch the following videos, and you’ll change your mind. The Blue Band paid a visit to the football team at the beginning of a meeting and made sure it was one the players wouldn’t soon forget.

What a way to start tonight's meetings! s/o @PSUBlueBand for bringing the energy! #camPSU pic.twitter.com/54fkjaZmdN

James Franklin and Marcus Allen lost their minds when the drumline started playing, but frankly, so did we.

The football team and Blue Band then posted even more videos to their Facebook pages — the band taught the team some one of its favorite fight songs, then finished off its performance with a customary singing of the Alma Mater.

We’re 23 days away from kickoff against Temple, and the Blue Band is certainly playing its part in getting us ready.
