Celebrate Michigan football’s historic 12th national championship with a special book offer!

One of college football’s most historic programs added a bit more history on Monday night in Houston: A College Football Playoff national championship for Michigan football — the program’s 12th.

But that’s not it: A Big Ten championship three-peat — the Wolverines’ first in three decades. One thousand victories — more than any other collegiate, professional or prep football team. Three straight berths in the College Football Playoff — a first for a Big Ten team. Three straight triumphs over That Team Down South — and Ryan Day. A 49-0 destruction at East Lansing — Michigan State’s most lopsided loss ever at Spartan Stadium. Rabid fans storming the field at the Big House — and at Maryland. A thrilling overtime triumph over Nick Saban and Alabama in the Rose Bowl.

Michigan vs. Everybody? More like Michigan beating Everybody!

To commemorate this incredible national championship by the Michigan Wolverines — and the three-year reign of dominance — the Detroit Free Press will publish a 208-page hardcover collector’s book. It will feature all the thrills and chills and chaos of a once-in-lifetime ride to glory and scores of color photographs — plus full coverage of the CFP title game in Houston and the celebration back home in Ann Arbor!
