Michigan football fans are all over the streets of New Orleans, and they're in a good mood as the Wolverines head into their game today against Virginia Tech in the Sugar Bowl (8:30 p.m., ESPN).

Nice video! I travel to New Orleans a fair amount and you really captured some of the spirit. After Michigan defeats Virginia Tech, I hope some of the fans stay on to cheer for the Lions this weekend.
