Coach of the Year
The football sequences were directed by Andy Sidaris, acknowledged at the beginning of the ending credits with the credit "Football Action Filmed by The Sidaris Company".,The uniforms worn at the beginning of the film were 1980s issue Battle Dress Uniforms (BDUs) that were not worn during the Vietnam War.,Like another reviewer, my wife bought this movie as part of a 20 movie family pack. I guess you could say that this was a decent made-for-TV movie for 1980, but it is super-predictable and the acting, except for Robert Conrad, is generally sub-par. The football scenes are nothing special and seem to mainly act as filler for the movie. The movie is very dated now, but a decent remake could probably make this into a good movie. However, is that really necessary? I mean, how many "underdog sports team works together for the big game with the undefeated guys" movies do we really need? This is probably a good movie for your younger kids if you find it in the bargain bin, but a sports movie buff will find it lacking.,
