[GrowlingTiger87]

I've seen 4. Shouldn't be a shock as to #1, right Tiger fans.

[BigTime]

I have seen all of them except numbers 8, 5 and 4.

Number 7, The Slaughter Rule was an ABYSMAL film. Never watch this unless you want to loose brain cells and say :wtf: a lot.

[Kamd50]

ladytiger091, when was that movie made and is there anyone in it of celebrity status? I have never heard of that one.

[DAWGH8R]

The Program is a 1993 film starring James Caan, Halle Berry, Omar Epps, Craig Sheffer, Kristy Swanson, Daniel Lee, and Joey Lauren Adams. The film was directed by Davis S. Ward who has directed and written other Hollywood films such as the Major League series.

The film touches on the season of the fictional college football team, the ESU Timberwolves as they deal with the pressure to make a bowl game, drug and alcohol abuse, and overall college life. It follows the trials of Coach Sam Winters (Caan), the Heisman Trophy candidate Joe Kane (Sheffer), the freshman running back Darnell Jefferon (Epps), their girlfriends (Berry & Swanson), and other team members.

The film was released by Touchstone Pictures in September of 1993. The movie went on to gross over twenty million dollars at the box office. The film was shot on loaction at several American universities. These schools included: Boston College, Duke University, the University of Michigan, the University of Iowa, and the University of South Carolina. The film includes a cameo appearance from Michigan coaching legend Glenn E. "Bo" Schembechler.

The ESU Timberwolves were a fictitious team, but they wore the uniforms of the Georgia Tech yellow Jackets in the movie.

I've seen 6 of the 10 movies, I thought "Remember The Titans" was the best.

[Kamd50]

So TC, was the movie any good in your opinion? I have to agree with you, Remember The Titans is the absolute best. We still watch it often, and I still cry every flipping time! lol

"Looking at the previews for “Friday Night Lights,” the fall’s new TV series based on the 2004 movie, we started to wonder what a list of the 10 best high school football movies ever would look like"


High School football movies....not Football movies

[chumly]

Not a bad plug for "Go Tigers" from a pretty big news rag. Nice for it to get props amoung some other memaorable and good movies.

Somoeone posted a reply at wjc.com that Go TIgers was a Documentary Film and not a movie, thus it shouldn't be on the list - like WHATeverrr!
