Necessary Roughness

Continuity mistake: In the final game, after halftime, Texas State goes for a fake punt. In one shot the ball is snapped to Jason Bateman who runs with it, and we see Mandylor begin running behind him. In the next shot, however, Bateman is still running, but Mandylor is going through the motions of a punt.

Continuity mistake: On the two-point conversion attempt in the final game, Blake rolls to his left and a lot of blocks occur, the last being #50, his center (at 37 seconds and against Flat-Top). After a cut away to the receiver and then back to Blake, he is slowing down to make the throw. Right before he throws, #50 comes from his front, again, to make a block (at 1 minute on Flat-Top). Manumana might have been able to make it back after his first block, but to come from the front seems a little unlikely.

Other mistake: The opening kickoff of the final game against North Texas was taken at the six-yard line and returned for a touchdown. The announcer said that North Texas takes the lead on a 96-yard return. If taken at the six-yard line, it should be a 94-yard touchdown.

Trivia: One of fictitious Texas State University's (TSU) opponents is Southwest Texas Bobcats (SWT), which was a real school. In 2003, SWT changed their name to Texas State University at San Marcos (they kept the Bobcat nickname). Eventually, when the other schools in the Texas State University System didn't change their names, "at San Marcos" was dropped and they are known just as Texas State University (TSU).
