Nike's Air Jordan brand has taken yet another step beyond the hardwood and onto the gridiron. Michigan football partnered with Jordan last year to supply their jerseys and other gear. Now, Michael Jordan's own alma mater will rock the jumpman.

College football kickoff is just 51 days away, so any and all news like this tidbit from North Carolina football only serves to get us more excited.
