Brad Paisley 'Country Nation' music video

Just in time for college football season, Brad Paisley shared the music video for “Country Nation” on Thursday — and it’s laden with mascots. So many mascots.

The video was filmed at Vanderbilt University’s football stadium and boasts over 20 people in fuzzy costumes. There’s even a Paisley mascot floating in the background, playing QB1 in a pick-up game against the other mascots.

(Fun fact: The first one Paisley mentions in the chorus is Mountaineers, the figurehead for West Virginia University: that’s his home state.)

Paisley will also perform during the broadcast of ESPN’s College GameDay, which airs Saturday from 9 a.m. to noon ET. The show is in Fort Worth, Texas for its season opener. Afterward, he’s set to hit four big colleges — Virginia Tech, the University of Texas, Baylor University, and the University of Arkansas — for a brief “Country Nation” tour.
