In 1972, hoping for a shot of glory, underdog Taft High challenged their meanest rival, Bakersfield, to the annual football game. But when Jack "Butterfingers" Dundee (Robin) dropped the ball instead making the big play, Taft was defeated and star Reno Hightower (Kurt Russell) has never let him live it down.
Now, 13 years later, Dundee wants the chance to redeem himself, no matter what it takes! His only solution is to play Bakersfield again...with the same team. But for the Taft team, getting into shape could not be tougher...and Bakersfield is loaded! |
