The story

Marty Reid is the star quarterback of Sanford College, and according to Coach Wilson, the finest backfield man the school has ever had. But Marty hates taking physical punishment and, after being knocked out by a vicious clip to the head in a game, begins to question his desire to continue playing. At the film's opening, Sanford and rival Whittier are tied 7–7 with just two minutes left to play.
