There's no mistaking who Jon Bon Jovi will be cheering for in Saturday’s College Football Playoff semifinals.

The rock star showed his support for Notre Dame ahead of the Cotton Bowl by tweeting out a video of himself on a Fighting Irish-themed yacht.

Bon Jovi has a personal connection to Notre Dame, as his son, Jesse Bongiovi, played cornerback there from 2013-15.

"When I was in eighth grade, I came to a game with my dad and basically I thought about how incredible it would be to go to Notre Dame and to be on the team and what an honor it is," Bongiovi told Daniel O'Boyle of the Observer in 2016. "Since I was a little kid I always wanted to be here. Tying that with the history and the academics and everything, it was kind of a no-brainer for me."
