What creates a championship team? Spirit, determination, and a legacy
that refuses to die. Game of My Life Auburn Tigers is a collection of
the greatest Tigers moments from past and present as seen through the
eyes of the players themselves. In this vivid collection of sports
moments, Mark Murphy has brought together passionate Auburn football
players to share their fondest experiences and memories. Some of these
games involve championships, including this year's heart stopping BCS
Championship Game victory over Oregon, while others seem ordinary save
for extraordinary personal meaning. In each case, it is the player who
singles out the game, the moment in time that to him is the most
defining of his Auburn Tigers football career.
Each player has his own unique story, but together they weave a tapestry
of Auburn's legendary history. Heisman Trophy winner Pat Sullivan, along
with many of the great names in Auburn history, such as All-Americans
Jackie Burkett, Jimmy "Red" Phillips, Buddy McClinton, Ken Rice, Steve
Wallace, Gregg Carr, Ed Dyas, "Cadillac" Williams, and fan favorites
such as Lionel "Little Train" James and Joe Cribbs, are profiled in this
unique book. It takes readers down memory lane, while also providing an
in-depth look into at men and games that helped shape and build the
Auburn football tradition and heritage.
