Review of “Bowls, Polls, and Tattered Souls”
This was another book I read for fun. Everyone needs some of these titles, and it was read a little after college football season started. It just made the love for college ball even greater. The book is really good, though a little outdated, but most of the material is still relevant. It is interesting to see some of the predictions or the future not play out as the author describes. He states that Charley Weiss is going to bring the glory back to Notre Dome. As you all know, that was not the case. He talks about the BCS, and the alignment of the divisions, and even states that he did not see any more realignment happening in the near future. Once again, he was dead wrong as this summer, it seemed everything blow up again. The chapter about recruiting was great, as this is one of the areas I am most interested in, and his talk about the Heisman award was interesting. He mentioned the ESPN affect which robbed Peyton Manning of the award. If you love college ball, this is a fun read, and it is interesting after a few years to see how much things have changed, and how little we know about the shifting forces in this game. Great reading for relaxation.
