• Movie Goof (factual errors): When Dizzy tells the band about getting them a paying gig the day after the football teams first win he says they will be headlining homecoming two weeks from Friday but they play the Championship game before homecoming. If their time line holds true the football team would have only won 2 games before the title game and when has a state championship been played before homecoming
• The leaves on the trees outside of the first high school in the film were added by the crew. Due to the fall-time weather and the fact that the high school (where the filming took place) had just opened and had little landscaping, the director needed the trees to be buffed up.
• The theatrical version features a Patton spoof, while the director's cut features a Braveheart spoof which the director felt would better lead into the payoff at the end.
• Movie Goof (factual errors): At the first football game that Gil goes to, the announcers say that that was the first win since the last Bush was president. Then, when Gil goes into the office and the coach and the principal are thanking him for all he did, the coach then states that it was their first win in five years. The movie was made in 2002 when George W. Bush was president, five years before that Bill Clinton would be president, not George Bush.
