Ann Arbor was on fire....literally....after the Michigan Wolverines won the national title Monday night.

After decades of disappointing seasons, lackluster play on the field and downright heartbreak at times, the Wolverines are finally at the top of the mountain.

It's been a long time coming, and we all know what happens when emotions are bottled up for years and over generations:

Michigan fans party hard in Ann Arbor after national title win.

That's exactly what happened Monday night and into the early Tuesday morning hours in Ann Arbor. Check out some of the epic scenes unfold below.

No matter what you think about Harbaugh, Connor Stalions, the cheating scandal or anything else about the program, it's always great to see college students cutting loose and having a great time.

The last time Michigan had a share of a national title was in 1997. Kids attending UM weren't even close to being alive when that happened. It wasn't just years ago. It was very literally a different lifetime.
