This is pretty weird. If you haven't seen Friday Night Lights you must be retarded and since you are reading this you obviously aren't retarded so through my casuistic sound reasoning you must have seen the movie.
Just to fire up your recall functions it's that killer High School football movie set in the lank small town of Odessa in West Texas where football is to people what that clay chalis full of cremated saviour is to the Christian nation. The story is about the Permian Panthers and their kick ass side that year. One of the main characters is the QB: Mike Winchell (his real name is Lucas Black and you might recognise him from Jarhead, Cold Mountain or Tokyo Drift)
Here is another story that is more similar than you can imagine:
Top USA university and incumbent holders of the NCAA football honours as they beat USC in the Rose Bowl last year, University of Texas aka the Longhorns. Now although an upset loss against Kansas rules them out of defending their title this year the Longhorns have been led by a freshman QB Colt McCoy. McCoy has broken every freshman NCAA QB record available and has in short been a rockstar revelation behind the line of scrimmage. Interestingly enough McCoy is from a small town in West Texas, Tuscola with a population of 700 and where he played High School football.
So what is so friggan interesting about this you ask? Look how similar the actor playing Mike Winchell and Colt are:
