Michigan (and other college) football highlights from 40's and 50's

Submitted by Butterfield on

For those of you who enjoy the history of college football, I just stumbled onto this amazing archive of historic film:  www.historicfilms.com

A search for "Michigan" or "football" will keep you entertained for hours.  Most clips include highlights from a bunch of major programs of that era.  If you are only interested in Michigan you will either have to be patient and wait until the Michigan segments pop up, or you can use the text log tab to click on the "scene" from the particular newsreel that interests you. 

Here's Michigan's 1943 victory over OSU - notice the band is advertising the sale of War Bonds - eek, advertising in the Big House! /s http://historicfilms.com/search/?type=all&q=michigan#p6t4226 

Happy viewing!
