I grew up here and call football here. FNL is a movie, and as such has some things added for dramatic effect. That being said, I have lived in different parts of the U.S., and it isn't the same. Yes Texas football is that intense from the small privates to the big 5A's. Depending on who you talk to, there are still places with the racial pressure exists. Permian is a shadow of its former self and doesn't carry a very big stick anymore. Southlake is the big dog now, and their program is like a college program.

Within every stereotype there is a kernel of truth. This is just a big damn kernel.
