"When the 1997 college football season began, the once-mighty Michigan Wolverines were dismissed nationally as a relic of a bygone era. Michigan had posted four straight four-loss seasons and started out no. 14 in the polls for the third straight year, its worst preseason rankings since 1985.... Right before the opener, Carr's team heard a survivor from a Mount Everest tragedy describe what it took to do the impossible, when everything around you was falling apart. Climb the mountain became the team's mantra. Four months later, the Wolverines stood on college football's summit as the 1997 national champion, a perfect 12-0.... This is the story of climbing the mountain, individually and as a brotherhood, during Michigan's most fabled season--one ending with its first national championship in a half-century and lone title in the last 75 years."
