A vital part of any southern football fan’s personal library, SEC Football's Greatest Games is both engaging and comprehensive; a collection that contextualizes readers’ favorite games while introducing them to important moments they never knew existed. Broken down into “The Games That Changed the South”; “The Iron Bowl”; “Hail Mary and Other Prayers”; “The Classics”; “Atlanta, Here We Come”; and “Championship Moments” . . . this book covers a century-plus of Southern football through games covered with depth, outstanding photography, and fascinating sidebars.
