Wrap it all up, and you have a special pakeage that makes this one of the best college football experiences in America, complete with color, pageantry,spectacle and entertainment."
"Setting..If your looking for a picturesque setting you'll be diappointed. But if it's intense Football envoirment, dripping with greatness, that your after,Memorial Stadium is the place to be on Saturdays in the fall."
IMO- It doesn't get any better than this.........................BOOMER SOONER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You can purchase this book at Wally World. Thats where I got mine for less than $20. plus all the info on others to campare what they say about OU in comparison. OU's section is 4 pages long and the Front cover that I got is OU & the Sooner Schooner.
