More About This Book

Overview

College football in the South, it has been said, is like a religion, and nowhere is the passion and dedication more evident than at the twelve universities that make up the Southeastern Conference. The SEC is one of the most storied associations in all of collegiate sports. Its intense rivalries, historic programs, iconic coaches, and championship traditions are felt every autumn, from Gainesville to Little Rock, Baton Rouge to Lexington. The competition among the schools is as fervent as ever, fomenting rivalries within states (Alabama vs. Auburn and Mississippi State vs. Ole Miss) and across borders (Florida vs. Georgia and LSU vs. Arkansas). Many legends of the game have graced the SEC gridiron, including Fran Tarkenton, Joe Namath, Reggie White, Herschel Walker, Bo Jackson, Emmitt Smith, and Peyton, Archie, and Eli Manning---to name just a few.

Celebrating three-quarters of a century of incomparable football, this lavishly illustrated book celebrates the stars, heroes, characters, and games that have made the SEC a force beyond reckoning. The book explores the players and the coaches, the teams and the traditions, and the great games and individual performances that have defined each decade of SEC football. Vintage and modern photography bring the world of the Southeastern Conference, past and present, brilliantly to life, and complete this timely tribute to an exceptional football legacy.

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
The Southeastern Conference (SEC) is home to some of the greatest football teams in the country -- and some of the fiercest rivalries. Richard Scott's SEC Football uses the 75th anniversary of this intensely competitive grouping as a ready-made excuse to showcase its greatest games, players, coaches, and individual achievements. After all, who can beat this lineup of teams: Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky, South Carolina, Vanderbilt, Arkansas, Auburn, Louisiana State, Mississippi, and Mississippi State?
Bristol Herald Courier
The coffee table-sized book explores the highly successful history of the SEC via a hearty combo of text and a wealth of photographs. Scott begins early and rolls along chronologically. Loads of coaches and players are featured within Scott's meticulously researched and voluminous book. But part of the point of Scott's definitive book is that while players make the plays and win the games, they come and go. Fans stay.

Clarion Ledger
The sweat and the effort. It's the kind of book that unlooses memories, reminders of why the goosebumps we get in the fall have little to do with cooling temperatures. The beauty lies not so much in the final score but in the ferocious will of the participants, the nobility of sweaty work, the yearning for victory, the fraternity of teammates, the challenge of facing up to fears and frailties ... The pride and the passion.
—Orley Hood
Dailey Reveille
You will learn all you ever wanted to know about Tennessee's Robert Neyland, Alabama's dominance under Paul "Bear" Bryant and Ole Miss legend Johnny Vaught. If this wasn't enough, the book is visually stunning. SEC Football is worth picking up just for its beautiful photography, but its contents will delight SEC diehards and casual football fans alike.

A look at the coaches, rivalries, games and grads of the SEC.

Tales from Bloggeritaville
With the holiday season around the corner, this book would make the perfect gift for that hard to buy for armchair quarterback that is in your life. If you are like me.....men are the hardest ones to buy for...this book makes the perfect gift.
The Advocate
The book details the SEC's history by decade. Memorable LSU figures and moments shown in feature or photographical form include: former Louisiana Gov. Huey P. Long, Ken Kavanaugh, Gaynell "Gus" Tinsley, Billy Cannon, the Chinese Bandits, Tommy Casanova, Charles McClendon, Eddie Fuller's "Earthquake Game" touchdown reception, the "Bluegrass Miracle," Glenn Dorsey and the 1958, 2003 and '07 national championships. Scott's book is rich, colorful and jumps to life, much like SEC football itself.
