Summary: In 1972, underdog Taft High challenged their meanest rival, Bakersfield, to the annual game. But when Jack "Butterfingers" Dundee dropped the ball instead of making the big play, Taft was defeated and star quarterback Reno Hightower has never let him live it down. Now, 13 years later, "Butterfingers" 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
