Let's go.

Oh, big boy, fat man,

come and get it.

Aah!

Don't touch my cousin!

Get this little psycho off me!

Stay down, bully!

That can't be legal.

Got your back, cuz.

Now, this is a first.

A holder had been ejected

from a game for fighting.

All 140 pounds of him.

Let's show these guys

what we're made of. Yeah!

Well, the knights

are definitely playing

Like a different team

this half.

You know,

they really are, sam.

I'm glad to see them playing

With some heart, finally.

Hut!

Bobby burkett hits napier

on a screen and...

Justin mack just

knocked buzzsaw...

And napier takes it in

for the touchdown.

Wow.

Set...

Handon takes the snap,

And kroger gets into

the backfield

To bat the ball away.

Damn it!

Hoover is lining up

for a 41Yard field goal.

The kick is up and good,

Giving the vikings

an 11Point lead

With 4:
34 left

in the third quarter.

Streeter has it...

At the 16 yard line.

Hey, man, you hit

like a 10YearOld girl.

Set. Hut!

Well, the knights have

narrowed the score to four now.

It's 2420.

And you know what?

Neither team has

a time out left,

So buckle your seat belts,

folks.

We maybe actually having

a game of champions after all.

I right, 23 iso.

I right, 23 iso.

One on one. Ready...

break.

Well, with 1:
36 left

in the game,

And the clock is running, hoover

has a second down and six,

Still up by four points.

320, hut!

Handon takes the snap and

gives it to his running back,

Who is stopped for two

by jordan kroger.

If they convert, we're done.

We need the ball back.

Jailhouse.

Apache! Apache!

Ready...

break.

It's third and 4,

with another shot

At a first down.

Handon is in no hurry

As the clock continues

to wind down.

You know, if the hoover

vikings get this first down,

The hot dog

is out of the bun.

Red 80. Red 80.

Hut, hut.

Handon fakes a handOff.

He rolls right.

The defenders converge,

and handon slides.

Wait a minute, he's short!

Well, it looks like hoover

is going to have to

Punt the football away.

In the first half,

Handon would have run

right through those guys.

My, my, my,

how things have changed.

Well, there's no way

to stop the clock,

And the knights have

a long field to go.

The ball was snapped

and the punt is away.

Finley calls

for the fair catch.

He steps away

as the ball lands

Inside the 5

No, that's a touchback!

Wow, hoover almost pinned

the knights inside the 1.

Then the cheese would have

been off the pizza.

Well, and now saint thomas has

one last possession to go.

They've gotta drive

80 yards

Without any time outs.

Coach, coach,

twins right,

89 wide flat.

No, no, just

Hey, 12, on me!

They're not gonna be able

to stop the clock.

They've got to throw.

PreVent! PreVent!

PreVent!

Aquinas lines up

and faces hoover

With seven defensive backs.

They're gonna take

no chances

At giving up

this long pass play.

Red 22. Red 22.

Set, hut!

Burkett takes the snap.

It's a draw play to finley.

From the 20 to the 30.

Wait a minute, wait a minute.

No, no, to the 40 now,

across midfield.

Out of bounds

at the hoover 43.

That's a very gutsy call

by deantonio.

I'm actually starting

to love this guy.

Aquinas, to me.

Quick, quick, let's go.

All right, everybody

in the stadium knows

We're going to napier.

They've been doubling him,

Tripling him all night,

all right?

So we're gonna use you

as a decoy.

We run a backside fly to damien,

Who is going to make a play.

O line, expect

all kinds of pressure.

Get it to me, man.

I'll get loose, coach, i swear.

He's our guy, coach.

He's good.

He can do it.

Ain't got no time.

All right, we go firebird.

We worked on it all year,

now it's time to execute.

Let's go.

Do it!

Yeah, baby, aquinas!

On the ball!

Well, the knights trail

by 4, no timeouts left,

And 47 yards away

from pay dirt.

Their biggest enemy right now

is the clock.

believe in yourselves.

Believe in your team.

Don't give up.

Believe in yourselves

and you can do it!

21's the mike!

21's the mike!

Black 77.

Black 77.

Set, hike!

Napier is covered.

Burkett rolls left.

Damien!

Taylor breaks his route

and turns upfield.

Burkett throws it deep.

He's gonna risk it all

on taylor.

Oh, taylor catches it!

Taylor catches it...

touchdown!

And with no time

on the clock.

No time on the clock.

Saint thomas wins.

Damien taylor has just made

the biggest catch of his career.

And we finally have

our answer

To who the best team

in stark county is.

Yes, we do, sam.

What a game.

Hey, burkett.

Good game.

This is a travesty.

Renee, you should be

with john.

I don't think so.

I'm not asking.

Don't talk to my daughter

like that.

You remember who

you're speaking to, steven,

Or come monday, you and i

will have a conversation

That you are not going to like.

I bet you're wondering

who leaked that information

To the newspaper.

It was me.

And i won't be in to work

on monday.

Or any other day.

I'm proud of you, son.
