I went into watching this film without expecting much more than a simple sports drama. With a cast consisting of Milo Gibson and Laurence Fishburne, I was excited to see something I could unwind to with a plot that reels you in and has you cheering for both the characters and the home team.
Instead you are left with one of the most poorly shot, directionless sports dramas you may ever watch, a real d-grade version of Friday Night Lights. The only real football game scenes are at the end where the movie expects you to care about this final game against the Longhorns but fails to make you care about it or even realise the last 1/4 of the film is going to contain it. I can not possibly think of one good thing about this film besides Milo Gibson's acting managing to be good enough to keep you hoping the movie is going to get better.
