A propos de cet article

The story about the most lopsided, highest scoring football game ever played as prominently featured by broadcast media including ESPN, the CBS Sports Network, National Public Radio, and in a number of print publications including metropolitan daily newspapers and periodicals nationwide. Heisman's First Trophy is a riveting novel based on a true story featuring romance, greed and revenge about a historically significant college football game played more than 100 years ago credited with changing the way the national media at the time viewed college football in the South. On a mission to save their beloved alma mater from financial demise, a handful of Kappa Sig fraternity brothers, representing tiny Cumberland University, boarded a train in Lebanon, Tennessee and traveled to Atlanta to play a monstrous Georgia Tech team coached by the legendary John Heisman. The game, which remarkably saw no first downs and had a number of twists and turns, ended with Tech winning 222-0, a record score that remains still today in college football. Tech's win put Coach Heisman on a path to his first national championship, saved Cumberland from likely having to close its doors forever, and changed the perception of a nation about the quality of football being played in the South. From the cost of a bottle of Jack Daniels in 1916 to why Tech withdrew from the SEC in 1963, Heisman's First Trophy is consumed with history about the game of foot- ball, its legends, special events and memorable games.…
