I thought you guys suspended football operations after 1953 to focus solely on basketball?

What stadium is that on the book cover?

50 years of upgrades and renovations will do that

Great find.
Its hard to believe the Big 10 would have been too interested in a playoff 50 years ago. Not only did they only send a representative to one bowl,the Rose, they had a no-repeat rule until 1972. Meaning,as in Michigan State's case, since they went to the Rose after the 1965 season, even though they won the Big 10 in 1966 and finished #2 with the infamous tie with Notre Dame, they couldn't go to a bowl. Purdue came in second in the Big 10 and represented the conference.

How did they not pick Tennessee to win the league?

ah yes. 1967. I was a senior in high school and one year away from being a frosh at LSU.
Athlon was a shite publication then and somehow has survived 50 years and is still a shite publication.

Tennessee will win the SEC again this year. Just like they did in 1967.
