* BigGame: played with. The Armadillos 0-8-1 and no matter what their season is over after the final game. But their game against Texas has extra meaning due to the earlier bar brawl. Plus they know they’re improving and have come together as a team and desperately want to win just one game.

* NoCommunitiesWereHarmed: Texas State is basically the University of North Texas (where the movie was mostly shot) with the Serial Numbers Filed Off. However, the backstory for TSU is basically that of Southern Methodist University, the only school in NCAA history to receive the "Death Penalty"[[note]]A complete shutdown of the program for an entire season. Which became two seasons because SMU didn't have enough eligible players when the ban was lifted. It may not seem like all that significant, but to put it in perspective, it took over 20 years before the SMU football program recovered enough to even be a blip on the radar in regards to championships and prestige.[[/note]] for football. Meanwhile, the Armadillos' rival Texas Colts are an expy of what most people probably think of the Texas Longhorns.

* AluminumChristmasTrees: Coach Gennero's appearance on Creator/{{ESPN}} is played like he's been exiled from coaching. In real life, broadcasting is a standard fallback job for coaches between jobs. Some, like Jimmy Johnson, Bill Cowher and Jeff Van Gundy, have chosen to stay in broadcasting, rather than pursue other coaching opportunities.
