I LOVE FOOTBALL! I grew up on football as it is almost a religion in Oklahoma. This book is a tribute to the college stadiums across the country to honor the long tradition of football and those that love it. The photos are amazing. The descriptions are intriguing. The magic moments are magnificent. Simply put this is football at its best.
