As top-ranked LSU prepares to meet Clemson in Monday night’s college football national championship game, the Tigers left their fans with a final inspirational message -- delivered by Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson.

“The closer I get to the top, the more I think about rock bottom,” Johnson, who starred as a pro wrestler in the WWE before becoming an actor, says as the two-minute video begins.

Johnson is the latest celebrity to narrate inspirational videos for the Tigers, joining actor John Goodman, country singer Tim McGraw and former LSU defensive standout Glenn Dorsey, The Advocate of Baton Rouge reported.

“Rock bottom transformed me, fortified me, it made me who I am," Johnson says in the video. "It made me promise myself to never go back and to never forget.”

LSU (14-0) meets No. 3 Clemson (14-0) at 8 p.m. EST at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans.
