This Saturday, a handful of famous fans made their college football allegiances known.

NBA and MLB legends alike were on the sidelines, along with a rising tennis star and reality TV personality.

Here are some fans that stood out among the crowd.

Jalen Rose, Miguel Cabrera and Juwan Howard

The Michigan Wolverines secured a 59-0 victory over the UConn Huskies, and these stars were at the Big House to witness the win.

The trio's Michigan ties run deep, as Howard and Rose were both members of the Wolverines "Fab Five" basketball team. Howard is also the head coach of Michigan's men's squad. Cabrera, who joined the 3,000 hit club earlier this season, has played for the Detroit Tigers since 2008.

Frances Tiafoe

The Maryland Terrapins had a familiar face in the house as Tiafoe, US Open semifinalist and native of Hyattsville, Maryland, attended their game against the SMU Mustangs.

Matt James

Before appearing on The Bachelor, James was a wide receiver for the Wake Forest Demon Deacons from 2011-14. He returned to Winston-Salem, North Carolina, on Saturday for his alma mater's game against the Liberty Flames.
