Here's a look at the best College football Hype videos before week 9 of the season:

Michigan State Spartans

“In this state you are either green or blue.”

That's the truth when it comes to the Michigan-Michigan State rivalry, and the Spartans didn't disappoint with this incredible hype video ahead of their in-state showdown with the Wolverines.

Michigan State does a great job of capturing this great interstate rivalry with compelling footage and game highlights from battles over the years. Check out the :49 mark where you can see the famous “Oh, he's having trouble with the snap!” Moment from the unforgettable ending in the 2015 version of this rivalry.

Michigan State used a perfect mix of current and past game footage, and it's impossible not to love the way it was seamlessly put together. Notable graduates include our own Sean Merriman, FOX Sports Digital.

Missouri Tigers

“It’s just us.”

That's the message in this must-watch hype video, narrated by former Mizzou Tiger Brock Olivo, who currently works as a special teams analyst for the Tigers. Olivo delivers a strong and passionate performance in the video. When you hear about a player who was born and raised in Missouri, it somehow seems different when you hear about the Missouri fraternity. The writing in this video was compelling and the way Olivo's part was shot was visually exciting.

Penn State Nittany Lions

“Capture it on film!”

That's the overarching message in this outstanding hype video from Penn State ahead of its Big Ten showdown against Wisconsin.

This video features an exciting narration, this time from CL Shepherd, who played in the NFL and is now a motivational speaker. The video makes you feel like you're sitting there with him as he prepares to lead you into battle. The exciting highlights in this video matched Shepard's energy.
