Big Ten marching bands are a treasure to both college football and to this earth. Ohio State proved this to us again at the highest level.

We have found this year’s must-watch marching band routine.

This past weekend, Ohio State played Nebraska in Columbus and the game was extremely one-sided. Unless you enjoy watching one team walk all over the other one, this game was not exciting or entertaining.

But the Ohio State University marching band had both those things covered with their superhero tribute halftime show.

Ohio State did not discriminate between Marvel and DC when it came to depicting our favorite heroes, and for that we are grateful. Honestly, the more superheroes they can pack into this routine the better.

Thor dropped in to smash the Michigan flag, because they are a “supervillainous” threat to Buckeye nation.

Iron Man rocketed through the hashmarks in a traditional flying superhero pose.

But if the Avengers can’t get the job done, why not throw up the bat signal.

And if Batman somehow misses it, you can always rely on Spiderman’s spidey senses.

Honestly, for being made from human beings, this depiction of a person swinging from place to place is probably the most realistic that you can get. I think they got the physics just right.

Not to be outdone, Superman himself shows off his own abilities by stopping an incoming train right on the football field.

Nebraska probably feels for that train.

And finally, because it seems like the Michigan flag made an unwelcome reappearance, the Hulk was called in to clean up the mess once and for all. Hulk smash!

Thank you, Ohio State, for giving the world your marching band. A lot of us may hate your football team, but your marching band is perfect. Continue to making otherwise boring football games an amazing work of art.
