Unrivaled Keeps Winning—Just Like the Team It Honors

When Unrivaled was released, it was more than just a sports book—it was a resurrection of one of the most extraordinary feats in college football history. The story of the 1899 Sewanee Tigers, who won five road games in six days and finished their season undefeated, was already the stuff of legend. But the book built on the award-winning documentary and brought the story to life with a force and beauty that’s now winning acclaim across the publishing and design world.
With richly layered historical context, hand-drawn illustrations, and a design that nods to the era without feeling stuck in it, the book doesn’t just recount the past—it honors it–as much a tribute to storytelling as it is to the iron men of the mountain.
And the industry has noticed.
Since its release, Unrivaled has racked up a string of accolades—from design and print excellence awards to recognition in national publishing competitions. Judges praise its “timeless aesthetic,” “scholarly depth,” and “emotional storytelling.”
Just like the team it honors, Unrivaled isn’t winning because it’s flashy. It’s winning because it’s fearless, finely crafted, and impossible to ignore.
Over a century after Sewanee’s undefeated run, the streak continues. This time, in hardback.
