OT: What are the best College football movies to watch in this off season?

[Jerademan74]

And I don't mean old Penn State games. I mean Hollywood type movies like Rudy!

 

[psuguy04]

Well, I hear Rudy can inspire you late at night...

 

[AvalonJohn]

Brian's Song! Best Football movie I've ever seen.

Something for Joey. Keep a box of tissues handy.

There is a movie, i haven't seen in decades called Saturdays' Hero. It stars John Derek,Donna Reed, Aldo Ray,and if i'm not mistaken the story is set in Pennsylvania.
BTW can't find this movie anywhere.

well these are both "high school" football movies, but I have a soft spot in my heart for Wildcats with Goldie Hawn

and Kurt Russell and Robin Williams are hilarious in the vastly underrated The Best of Times, an early Ron Shelton film which predated Bull Durham.

oddly enough . . . both films from 1986, and both feature M Emmet Walsh

Rudy. New sneakers, slam, leave.

We are Marshall

Sad story, good movie.

How about high school? Remember the Titans is a good one. Not a serious movie, but Varsity Blues. Anyone for some whipped cream?

Back to college, I always liked Unnecessary Roughness. Great kicker. It's a shame Penn State didn't get Paul Blake.

 

[simons96]

Yo ugly! Yo ugly! Yo momma says yo ugly!

that movie is worth watching just to see a young Woody and Wesley

 

[CF LION]

Horse Feathers starring The Marxx Brothers....an oldie (really old) but a goodie.

 

[ClarkstonMark]

UM is showing Remember the Titans on the Big House big screens next weekend, if you are up for a drive.

I only go to um when Penn State plays there.

Johnny Be Good - Anthony Michael Hall and Robert Downey Jr. About a star QB being recruited by all the big time schools (including an appearance from a Penn State coach) and his much smaller, hometown school. A fun watch.

The Program is a great movie

Check out Everybody's All American with Dennis Quade and John Goodman

Easily the top college football movie of all time. This is an awesome movie. If you have not seen it you are missing the best college football movie ever.

Wow. Forgot about that one. Great flick. I'm also a fan of "Saturday Night Lights". Billy Bob Thornton is always good.

I always liked 'Radio' with the coach's speech in the barber shop about how much we enjoy the game, especially if we win, but it's not all about football.

Remember the Titans a close second.

Go for the ball!
