Trojans 1972: An Immortal Team of Mortal Men (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781441547798)

Bill Block's Trojans 1972: An Immortal Team of Mortal Men captures the story of 47- USC football players, beyond their glory days on campus and into their everyday lives as men. The 1972 Trojans are considered one of the greatest teams in the history of college football. They defeated Ohio State 42-17 in the 1973 Rose Bowl to complete an undefeated 12-0 season and were crowned national champions. Each chapter is a mini biography told through the eyes of each player. Each and every player from that '72 team whether as powerful as fullback Sam "Bam" Cunningham, as intellectually gifted as defensive back Marvin Cobb, or as massive as offensive lineman Pete Adams, eventually became one of us. A mortal. You'll find humor; you'll find sorrow; and you'll find football. Most of all you'll fi nd lessons about being mortal.
