This documentary is so much responsible for my love of this program. Still the best one ever done! So glad to see it's on YouTube.

The opening shots of the stadium with Ufer audio gives me chills EVERY time.

With the M men’s glee club singing “the Yellow and Blue” in the background. Absolutely, yes!

thanks for posting that SRK. i am embarrassed to say that i did not know there were lyrics to the preamble to the victors. can anyone post those? i'd like to learn them and teach them to the family.

For many years, I started the Michigan Football season by watching this documentary the night before the first game. This faded into the background with the team’s struggles over the last decade.
Perhaps it is time to renew the tradition.
Thanks for posting!

I HAVE THE SAME TRADITION!
August 22nd, 2018 at 7:43 AM ^
Sounds like a fantastic tradition! I'll have to start it this year.

JWG, you have done an absolutely fantastic job of posting wonderful stuff this summer. thank you very much.
EDIT: and thanks to WD, too, as pointed out by JWG. not as prolific as JWG this particular summer, but WD has definitely gotten into gathering some great video.
August 21st, 2018 at 10:32 PM ^
This wasn't me. It's WD.
But it's my favorite! Thanks anyway.
August 21st, 2018 at 11:21 PM ^
According to some, WD is half the users on this site, so maybe it's all the same anyway.
August 22nd, 2018 at 1:07 AM ^
That's exactly what WD would say if he were posing as another avatar...
You're not too sneaky for me!
August 22nd, 2018 at 9:19 AM ^
I'm WD !

I own it, but haven't watched it in a while. I will weekend.

Coincidentally I am watching All or Nothing. Last season was too emotional and disappointing to watch it then. Even now it's bringing back bad memories and pissing me off with the wasted losses.
The Lloyd documentary is way more uplifting although a distant memory unfortunately.

Forgot about this. I think my DVD copy is still at my parents' house. I just watched the first few minutes and, not gonna lie, I got a little choked up. I've been to every home opener with my dad for at least 18 years (since I was a freshman in high school) and I always get the chills when i see the team running out onto the field for the first time of the season. It's hard to not think about the history and all the exciting moments that have occurred right there over the decades.
Can't wait for the season to start.

this one on youtube is not as good but is a fun one to watch:
August 21st, 2018 at 10:52 PM ^
Thanks WD, I've never seen this before. Bookmarking for later. Go Blue!

I'm a huge fan of Vintage Bo, as well as those yearly recap films Michigan Replay was doing in the late 80s-early 90s. I used to watch a VHS of the 1988 edition just about every day when I was a little kid.
August 21st, 2018 at 11:10 PM ^
I'm looking forward to the one after we win the championship this year.
August 21st, 2018 at 11:38 PM ^
Magnificent. Thanks for posting.
August 22nd, 2018 at 5:13 AM ^
The first time they played The Victors nearly got to me.
August 22nd, 2018 at 7:55 AM ^
I can't believe I've never seen this. Thanks for posting. I know what I'm doing tonight.
August 22nd, 2018 at 9:20 AM ^
I view this at least once a year, generally in the week leading up to the first game. Every time I watch it, I get the same feeling as the first.
August 22nd, 2018 at 11:14 AM ^
I love the Michigan-Ohio State HBO documentary.
August 22nd, 2018 at 3:46 PM ^
Outstanding, thanks for this post.
