Book excerpt: Game of My Life Texas A&M Aggies describes, in colorful detail, the single-favorite game of some of Texas A&M’s greatest football legends. While each of these stars has different memories, they all certainly have a place in Texas A&M’s football history. Discover all the details surrounding these monumental moments—the unique aura of each game; where A&M stood at the time, both athletically and socially; plus a biographical sketch of each Aggie legend, including where he is now. Hear from A&M linebacker Dat Nguyen, the team’s all-time leading tackler, about the 1998 Big 12 Championship Game, plus such games as A&M’s 20–16 win over Bear Bryant-led Alabama in the 1968 Cotton Bowl. Jarrin’ John Kimbrough talks about leading the Aggies to their only national title in 1939 with a 14–13 defeat of Tulane in the 1940 Sugar Bowl. Other standouts include defensive end Ray Childress, quarterback Kevin Murray, linebacker Ed Simonini, quarterback Bucky Richardson, and running back John David Crow.

Book Synopsis Game of My Life by : Brent Zwerneman

Download or read book Game of My Life written by Brent Zwerneman. This book was released on 2003-01. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Homer Norton, the recently embattled and once deathly sick Aggies football coach, nearly choked on his celebratory steak in Biloxi, Mississippi, on New Year's Eve 1939, at the pointed inquiry about his 10-0 squad. How might anyone question the Texas A&M offense, he wondered, especially since a mere two days separated his boys from a shot at earning the school's first national title? But Norton's oft-questioned offense -- along with his vaunted defense (showing some things truly don't change in Aggieland) -- rose to the occasion in the 1940 Sugar Bowl against Tulane. In that most memorable game, John Kimbrough, a Cary Grant-handsome fullback, led A&M to the school's lone national championship. It's but one of many rousing contests vividly recounted in Brent Zwerneman's Game of My Life: 25 Stories of Aggies Football, a collection of tales from some of the best and most intriguing football players to ever don the Maroon & White.

Book Synopsis More Tales from Aggieland by : Brent Zwerneman

Download or read book More Tales from Aggieland written by Brent Zwerneman. This book was released on 2005. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More Tales From Aggieland, a compelling collection of stories and anecdotes compiled by Zwerneman, who has covered the Aggies for a decade, offers readers insight and plenty of humor on a wide range of A&M sports and events, including Parker's splendiferous leap. On the heels of Zwerneman's successful Game of My Life: 25 Stories of Aggies Football, More Tales from Aggieland relates entertaining narratives from athletes over the decades who dearly love Texas A&M and also reveals intriguing stories to the Aggies faithful. For example, read about the recent discovery, deep in the bowels of Kyle Field, of a long-lost Sugar Bowl trophy, an elegant momento from A&M football's lone national championship season in 1939. People had their minds on things other than athletics, said Jim Sterling, a member of the 1939 team--speaking of the Great Depression and the impending world war, and why the trophy probably was lost in the first place. Now, from out of the dungeons of old Kyle, that sterling silver reminder of A&M football's most glorious day is basking in the light of Aggieland once again. Read about this and other fascinating and often fun chronicles from Texas A&M sports in More Tales from Aggieland.
