Movie Trivia/Goofs

→ View All
  • Movie Goof (audio/visual unsynchronized): During the Midland Lee game, the game announcer in the Peach seat (Jeffrey Gibbs) can be seen talking out of sequence with the audio.
  • Movie Goof (continuity error): In the final drive of the game against Midland Lee, Winchell completes a pass to the Lee 10 yard line. On the next play, Permian is back at the 40 and Winchell completes a pass that goes to the 20. On the following play, the same clip of a Permian player making a catch at the 10 yard line is used, only from a different angle.
  • Movie Goof (anachronisms): At the first football game (against Marshall), the logo on the bass drum in the marching band is from the 2004 Rose Parade - you can make out the date and city on the bottom of the drum.
  • The state trooper who pulls up next to Chavez and Billingsley outside of the 7-11 is driving a special police package Ford Mustang that was made from the early 1980s to 1993, and Texas DPS did indeed use these cars at the time.
