Syracuse 1959 football national championship ring up for auction

Whenever you discuss the Syracuse Orangemen’s 1959 football national championship, you probably use the term “we.” “We” won. “We” beat Texas in the Cotton Bowl, etc.

Well now that “we” could at least FEEL a little more honest... even if you weren’t even born when that season occurred.

Over at Lelands.com, they’ll be auctioning one of the actual SU championship rings from 1959. This one, awarded to Gene Grabosky, goes up for sale at noon ET on October 28. Grabosky, for those that need a refresher, was a defensive tackle for the Orangemen and a senior on that squad.
