Description
Describing the personalities, events, and facts that any and every Aggies fan should know, this work stands as a complete guide to one of the most accomplished and unique histories in college football. Highlighting the traditions that make Texas A&M football one of a kind-the 12th Man, the Aggie Bonfire, and Midnight Yell Practice-this book details the team's recent resurgence with their electrifying, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback Johnny Manziel before taking readers back to the Aggies' three national championships and describing the larger-than-life figures who have coached at the school, including Paul "Bear" Bryant, Gene Stallings, Jackie Sherrill, R. C. Slocum, and Kevin Sumlin. More than a century of team history is distilled to highlight the essential moments, describing in an informative and lively way the personalities, games, rivalries, and plays that have come together to make Texas A&M one of college football's most beloved programs.
