It's public knowledge from movie sources that the movie has clear pedo tendencies.

I've seen the movie. It's a comedic classic. I'm just relaying info straight from quoted movie sources.

Now, hold on Genro. The "Go Gamecocks" scrawled on the wall was part of the joke. Stiller gets picked up in a sting catching homosexual activity at a rest stop (based on actual facts ). When he gets released, he is being unwillingly spooned by his roommate in the cell with "Go Gamecocks" scrawled on the cell wall behind him.

That's a direct written reference -- and way more than seeing a flag or wearing a t-shirt.

Wait ... this is mocking my team. Why am I arguing for this to be included???? Never mind; carry on.

I'm sure there are multiple inspirations but I think its more SMU than anything.



anyway




In Back to the Future II Marty has to get the sports almanac back from Biff. People tend to remember it was UCLA that wins a game (over Wash 19-17) when old Biff proves to young Biff the book is legit.

What many might not have picked up on is later in the film, Biff is listening to an update of top 10 college football scores after leaving the dance.

Those scores include

UCLA - 19
Washington - 17

Michigan St - 42
Minnesota - 14

Ohio State - 20
Iowa - 10

Michigan - 30
Indiana - 0

Notre Dame - 27
North Carolina - 7

OU - 52
Iowa St - 0

TCU - 47
Texas - 20

West Virginia - 7
Pitt - 26

Maryland - 25
Clemson - 12

Texas A&M - 20
Rice - 10

hey, you said if its mentioned...

they gave the score, its clearly audible, and those scores Biff is listening to are part of the plot line that moves the 2nd film.

extra bonus is that year's team was coached by Bear Bryant.

Ole Miss is referenced in the movie, "Mississippi Burning" by Willem Defoe's character, Agent Ward in a conversation with Agent Anderson played by Gene Hackman.



Ward: Let's get this thing straight. I haven't had a pimple in years, I shave every morning, I even go to the bathroom by myself, so you can quit the boss stuff. They put me in charge because I've been through this before.
Anderson: Birmingham? Montgomery?
Ward: Oxford. I was with Meredith at Ole Miss.

That's how you suggest a movie and demonstrate it being legit.

if it makes you feel better, they got the A&M/Rice score wrong

A&M actually won 20-12, not 20-10.

whats kind of super fan dorky is I've known the score was wrong since it came out on VHS b/c as an inquisitive kid I looked it up in an A&M media guide.

I misread your post. I thought it was in the sports almanac he looked at.

Legit.

Also, A Few Good Men Is Fixed

I think we are in another movie, in the same role. Necessary Roughness or Waterboy or something like that.

Isn't part of the Program filmed at South Carolina? Isn't their stadium the home field?
