Fun Fact: The person who wrote the dialogue for this game also was one of the writers for the short-lived ESPN fictional football drama "Playmakers" (aka the series that was so controversial that the NFL forced ESPN to cancel the show or they would 86 their TV rights contact with them).

Playmakers was actually the inspiration for this game, as well!

[@Aleph3575]

The AI rubber bands like crazy in this game. Its honestly the biggest flaw this game has, you pretty much never EVER wanna be up by more than 2 scores unless there is literally no time left because even the worst teams will become gods amongst men and lead comebacks that will make 28-3 look like a fucking joke.
