Go Aztecs! (Paperback)

Paperback. A new, updated edition of GO AZTECS! is now available. This history of Aztec football has many additional photos, revised records and coverage of two additional seasons. The author writes with a unique perspective. Since he enrolled as a San Diego State freshman in the fall of 1946, Tom Ables has been a dedicated fan of Aztec football. In late August 1946 he was a battleship sailor in the engine room of the USS Alabama. A month later he was sports editor of the school newspaper. Before his freshman year ended he was the school's first sports publicity director. Sixty-nine years later, Tom still follows Aztec football as passionately as he did as a college freshman. Through the 2014 season, Tom has seen 757 of the 759 Aztec football games played since 1946. He's seen all the great ones: Marshall Faulk, Dennis Shaw, Haven Moses and countless other great Aztecs. And, of course, one of the most brilliant football minds of all time, coach Don Coryell. Join Tom on his journey through the great games, players, coaches and seasons; Aztec record-holders and hall-of-famers; and games played in world famous stadiums, and on some truly bizarre fields.
