Its the fourth game of the year and they play there rival from the other side of the state. The east vs west game is always a thriller and there is always a large amount of people that show up.

Permian played a non conference team that was from the other side of the state of Texas. Both teams were going back and forth but it came down to the last play of game. Unfortunately the other team one and remains the number 3 team in the state.

one of the Permian high school football stars has the ability to play college ball but he doesn't want to. He is 195lbs and runs a 4.7 forty, he wouldn't get a scholarship because he wont take the SAT or ACT. Everybody is telling im that its a waist of talent if he doesn't play in college.

At Permian High School, there's so much diversity. Ever since the desegregation there's been fights everywhere along with riots. People think this is a way to bring the community of Odessa together but others think differently.

Mike, one of the football players for Permian, his dad recently died. The whole chapter is about how him and his dad and all the fun times they shared together before his passing.

During a scrimmage, boobie, there best and first string RB went down with a leg injury and when he went to the doctor the doctor told him that he would be out 6-8 weeks. Boobie is nothing without football his only dream is to be in the pros.

the book takes place in Odessa Texas and the first chapter is about all of the history about the town and how it became Odessa.

Boobie Miles injured his knee on a play and he is out for the rest of the season. During one of the games at halftime he decided to quit because the team didn't need him anymore.
