Review

Army-Navy, Florida Florida State, Texas-Oklahoma. All fine and good, but honestly, they might have to wait in line for a roll call of great college football rivalries when somebody mentions Grambling vs. Southern. Or should we say, Bayou Classic, because that says it all about the Tigers and Jaguars squaring off at the Louisiana Superdome on another Thanksgiving weekend. Aiello s book gives you the straight, detailed scoop on why this game has taken on must-attend proportions for too many seasons to count. After you read it, you ll want to purchase tickets to the next duel in the Dome. --O. K. Buddy Davis, executive sports editor, Ruston Daily Leader
