Other mistake: Multiple mistakes are made at the end of the game against the Wildcats. Before the final touchdown, the Wildcats are shown leading 13-0 with 6:00 minutes left in the game. After the touchdown, the Wildcats are shown leading 20-3 with 3 seconds left in the game. Based on Mox's position in the two shots, no other plays happened, meaning that the time and score in one of the shots is incorrect. The clock also continues to run when the touchdown is scored even though it's supposed to stop.

Factual error: Right after Lance gets hurt and Mox replaces him Mox's first play is a 40 yard pass for a first down after which everyone starts yelling he needs to stop the clock and the camera shows the clock moving. The problem is that in high school football the clock stops on first downs while they reset the chains so the clock should have stopped running until the first down markers were moved and the ref set the ball.
Mo Moxon: Kyle, did you start a cult?
Kyle: Yup.
Mo Moxon: That is so sweet.
Question: When the boys leave the landing strip, it is 7:00 am. The game presumably starts at 7:00 pm. Couldn't they have just taken aspirin and drunk plenty of water throughout the day to relieve their hangovers prior to the game?
