Sports Illustrated: The College Football Book Reviews

  What is it about college football that makes fans like me drool over the television every Saturday? Why do we act with such passion, love, and hatred over this sport? My answer to these questions include the FACT that no other sport carries with it the rich traditions and pageantries of over 100 different schools. What other sport can say it has Play Like a Champion Today, between the hedges, the dotting of the "i", and "Hook 'em horns?" Where else can you find Touchdown Jesus, Michie Stadium, Howard's Rock, and the Boomer Schooner? How about hearing the Notre Dame Victory March, The Victors, Fight On, and Rocky Top? The answer is only with COLLEGE FOOTBALL!
  
  This book, published by Sports Illustrated, captures all of these wonderful things (and more) that I have highlighted already. It is filled with wonderful stories about some of the game's most important players and coaches. It presents beautiful and vivid pictures from over 100 years worth of games and places. It is a PERFECT compliment to this colorful (and corrupt) sport that has enthralled millions for decades. As the 2014 season approaches, I could not think of a better way to prep for that first kickoff than by reading this titanic tribute to the game that I love the most.

  This book is very long. But its worth it. It was one of my favorite books ive ever read. Every page i learned something knew that i never did know. There are great photograghs in the book and a lot of great information. Its about all the teams and programs. If you like stuff like this, this book is perfect. I liked it and I thought it was interesting to learn about all the old and new things that happen around college football.

  I am a total nut for college football and for 50 years, the best sports journalism was at Sports Illustrated.
  The book is a pretty standard coffee table about one of my favorite topics.
  A serious criticism and the reason I subtracted a star: SI publishes its classic articles from the past, but the articles are two columns, maybe 500 words.

  This is one of my favorite coffee-table books ever. The information and pictures contained within these pages are enough to keep any college football fan busy for hours on end. Amazing book, really.
