Book Description

Golden Ages of College Sports October 15, 2005
Columbus, Ohio, may be the closest thing to college football's epicenter, situated as it is in the sport's "cradle." And Ohio State football fans have been rocking that cradle for 114 years, exhorting their mighty Buckeyes in the bruising wars of the Big Ten conference since 1890. From the school's stable of Heisman Trophy winners to fabled coaches Paul Brown and Woody Hayes to the 2002 national championship team, football rules autumn in famed Ohio Stadium.

BUCKEYE MADNESS is the story of Ohio State football. Here are the legendary Chic Harley, Les Horvath, Hopalong Cassady, Archie Griffin, Eddie George, and other stars; eight championship teams; the explosive rivalry with archrival Michigan; the all-time Ohio State team; and the rosters from each national championship team. All of this is in the words of the players themselves, the coaches, opponents, fans, and members of the media. It's the ultimate three yards and a cloud of dust!

4.0 out of 5 stars Simply the Best, February 9, 2007

hbdawg (Knoxville, TN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Buckeye Madness: Great Eras in Ohio State Football (Golden Ages of College Sports) (Paperback)
Love the Bucks? Then this is your book. Sure there are some quibbles. I would have preferred more time with the Rex Kern-Jack Tatum-Leo Hayden-John Brockington team. Some mention of the Bubba Smith-Jimmy Raye embarassment in Columbus and the resulting hatred of Duffy Daugherty by Woody Hayes would have been nice. Also more than a mention of Cornelius Greene please. But regardless, this book made my hands sweat and my eyes mist.
