QUARTERBACK: Okie. Okie.

Are you accusing me of making a mistake?

Good game, Ben. Mike?

Don't know. Never count.

The give is to the right halfback, Gerhard Schwedes.

Yes. Yes, it is.

You taking a look at Davis?

You're in the same magazine as Reverend King,

I may be a commodity, but this commodity is playing for Cleveland.

Texas, knocking on the door at the goal line.

SARETTE: Six regular! Six regular!

Because at that moment you are friends

You run hard, he'll show you how to run harder.

You're goddamn right you are.

Ernie? You okay?

Holding, offense!

Jim? Right here, Jim.

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

and you will do what I tell you, when I tell you to do it.

I like the way that you think, Mr. Davis.

Behind me, the East team led by Syracuse's Ben Schwartzwalder.

What the hell's going on in here?

You might want to keep in touch with her.

That was a mistake, too. I'm sorry. Uh-huh. Uh-huh.

Good-looking fellow like you.

Come on, son. Go get us six. Go!

40 years, Pops worked underground.

Bobby Lundy steps up and there's a huge hit on McKinley.

Ref, time out. Time out.

You want a penalty, boy?

Hey, Jim, you think you're ready?

Can we get off these tracks?

But we can no longer willfully close our eyes

it could be a beer bottle, it could be anything.

If we win either game, we will be the national champions.

Hey, you guys all saw it. Coach, he went crazy on me.

I'm hurt. What is that? Ernie? Ernie.

You don't have any more.

SARETTE: Okie. Okie.

/ don't know whether you know this,

He's too fast for these kids.

Right now, he's... Now watch him here.

and this time we're gonna win it.

Get them up, come on.

The Longhorns have made it a one-point game.

Just a running back? That's bullshit!

Not only stupid, but retarded.

Me and Jim Brown in the same backfield.

All right, guys. We're gonna run it till they stop it.

This is a football team that could go unbeaten.

What you saying?

You are offside.

YOUNG ERNIE: His grace which was bestowed...

(WHISTLE BLOWING) PLAYER: Get him off!

Mr. Modell, George Marshall from the Washington Redskins is on the phone.

I just want to be the best player I can be, you know.

Don't you let anyone steal history away from you.

Hey, Ernie, Roger Page, Channel Nine.

First one Schwartzwalder recruited here.

(CROWD CHEERING)

be pounding on your leg the whole time.

How do you ever expect to replace Jimmy Brown?

I'll give you a tour of the campus on the way to your dorm.

Brokaw, come here. Yeah, Coach.

And you know me. I'm an optimist. I'm gonna fight it.

You want me to write an article?

How'd he do that? We're not sure.

that violence is self-defeating.

I hope you don't mind signing a couple hundred autographs.

and each of these players is deserving.

Come on! Huddle!

And Pops for believing in me.

I'll jump on the first plane from Cleveland and come and wring your neck.

You are here to change all that.

I'm so sorry. You go to Syracuse?

number 45, from Syracuse at halfback, Ernie Davis.

2,091 rushing yards, 5.8 yards of carry,

He's behind you. Go!

down near the Kansas 30-yard line.

Ben, the kid has a five-yard average.

Get off your heels and get after it. That was embarrassing.

Ready? For what?

Ernie? Ernie Davis?

Keep it. Hold on to it for yourselves

MAN: Get off the field!

That is something, but Sarah, it looks like you didn't read the best part.

The Orangemen are knocking on the door once again.

J ay hawks jump out to a 7-0 lead

Strong left, strong left!

(CROWD CHEERING)

Floyd, I'm never gonna play for Cleveland.

He breaks through both tackles and look at that, into the secondary.

Double tight, double tight. Watch the sweep left! Watch the sweep!

What happened to him?

A full house. 495 dive on two, on two. Ready?

Hey, fellas, how you doing?

I do not intend to let them waste their money.

(TRAIN APPROACHING)

Let's see what he does.

whether you're in the game or not.

What am I thinking right now?

(WHISTLE BLOWS)

(STAMMERING) But

(BAND PLAYING ROCK 'N' ROLL MUSIC)

BEN: Quick. Go! Go! Go! Go!

Congratulations.
