An inside look at the players, coaches and teams

The 25 Greatest Moments In Camp Randall History is a tribute to the University of Wisconsin football program, offering an inside look at the players, coaches and teams. Painstakingly researched by columnist Mike Lucas, who has twice been named Sportswriter of the Year in Wisconsin, The 25 Greatest Moments In Camp Randall History describes each memorable instance in detail, and ranks them in order of their importance and impact on the UW program. Black-and-white and color photographs bring memories of gameplay and competition alive. The 25 Greatest Moments In Camp Randall History is surely the next best thing to attending the #4 rated college football venue (according to ESPN's 2004 ranking) and witnessing a moment in person.

Fantastic

Mike Lucas has definitely captured the essence of Camp Randall's history. Having been a Badger fan for the better part of three decades, I certainly think he did a terrific job of highlighting the great moments. Some may quibble over the order of the rankings. I personally think that the win over Michigan in '93 was the greatest moment, but in all, the book is fantastic. A must have for any Badger or Big Ten football fan. Golden Gopher fans not included, if there are such people.

Great book!

Just received my copy and sat down and read it all on a Sunday afternoon. The author, Mike Lucas, has covered the Badgers forever and always seems to have some interesting insight into the Badgers program. In this book he has personally covered 20 of the 25 moments. He also talked with the players and coaches from each of the great moments which adds flavor to each of the segments. The book is an oversided hardcover, coffee-table type book that has game photos (many of which are color)from the actual games being featured. I can't really argue with the list (although I may have included the '93 Michigan win as one of the greatest moments on its own--in the book it ties in with the chapter on the '93 Ohio State tie) as every game that is listed is certainly a great moment. If you are a University of Wisconsin football fan, you will greatly enjoy this book.
