LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The University of Louisville football team’s latest uniform combination comes courtesy of The Greatest.

The team released a hype video on social media Thursday to showcase the gold-themed jerseys players will wear Saturday against SMU. Plenty of nods to Louisville’s own Muhammad Ali can be found throughout the video.

The video begins with Ali’s voice in the background and a UofL football player running past various Louisville landmarks, including the Louisville Gardens downtown and Ali’s iconic pink childhood home in the Parkland neighborhood.
