Former Cincinnati Bearcats standout Jason Kelce, the Philadelphia Eagles' center since 2011, narrated a video shared Friday afternoon via Twitter by UC football's account that is sure to get supporters of the team fired up for the Cotton Bowl between the Bearcats and the Alabama Crimson Tide - one of two College Football Playoff semifinals.

Minutes earlier, @GoBearcats shared a photo of four former UC sports legends - former Bearcat volleyball standout and U.S. Olympian Jordan Thompson, PGA golfer Jim Herman, and former Cincinnati baseball standouts Ian Happ and Kevin Youkilis - posing together for a photo in advance of the game in Dallas:
Kelce's former teammates with the Eagles, fellow former Bearcats Connor Barwin and Brent Celek, appeared in a Philadelphia Eagles' video to support Kelce as Philly's nominee for the 2021 Walter Payton Man of the Year award.
Kelce played at UC from 2007 to 2010. Barwin was Kelce's teammate with the Bearcats for two of those seasons, and with the Eagles for four seasons. Celek played at UC from 2003 to 2006 and with Philly from 2007 to 2017.
Earlier this month, Kelce's brother, Travis, a star tight end for the Kansas City Chiefs, celebrated a game-winning touchdown by gesturing and shouting "U-C" in the end zone as a tribute to his alma mater.
