<i>He's healing from
an ankle fracture but</i>

176
00:14:40,613 --> 00:14:42,046
But bullshit!

177
00:14:42,548 --> 00:14:46,075
<i>Anybody else? Maybe someone
who isn't hurt or lazy?</i>

178
00:14:47,319 --> 00:14:49,549
<i>Isn't there
a kid from Elmira?</i>

179
00:14:50,222 --> 00:14:53,623
<i>Yeah, Ernie Davis

182
00:15:01,700 --> 00:15:03,895
<i>Well, he's a
Negro boy, Ben</i>

183
00:15:05,371 --> 00:15:08,272
Is this a new trend,
or is it just my luck?

184
00:15:08,340 --> 00:15:09,568
<i>It's a new trend</i>

185
00:15:10,876 --> 00:15:13,674
<i>He might remind you
of somebody we know</i>

186
00:15:14,613 --> 00:15:17,810
<i>Too old to butt heads
with another Jim Brown</i>

187
00:15:19,051 --> 00:15:20,313
<i>Roll it</i>

188
00:15:24,556 --> 00:15:27,047
<i>SIMMONS: There he is
on the left, number 55</i>

<i>Right now, he's
Now watch him here</i>

190
00:15:31,730 --> 00:15:36,064
<i>He breaks through both tackles and
look at that, into the secondary</i>

191
00:15:36,435 --> 00:15:38,869
There he goes,
330-yard line,

<i>Okay then</i>

205
00:16:31,056 --> 00:16:34,992
<i>What's on your mind, Coach? I
take it this isn't a social call</i>

206
00:16:35,527 --> 00:16:40,157
<i>All right, look, there's this kid,
and I want you to help me recruit him</i>

207
00:16:40,232 --> 00:16:42,632
You want me to help you?

208
00:16:43,102 --> 00:16:44,933
<i>You're leaving us a
hell of a hole, Jim</i>

209
00:16:45,004 --> 00:16:49,168
<i>And we are up against the big
boys We've got Pitt, UCLA, Texas</i>

00:16:49,241 --> 00:16:51,641
<i>You mean he's colored</i>

211
00:16:51,710 --> 00:16:53,177
<i>He's a Negro, yes</i>

212
00:16:53,812 --> 00:16:56,076
<i>You can't talk to Negroes?</i>

213
00:16:56,148 --> 00:16:57,206
<i>I can't</i>

214
00:16:58,417 --> 00:17:03,116
<i>I'm not good at that salesman stuff
Not much of a dancer, you know that</i>

215
00:17:04,556 --> 00:17:09,118
<i>I know this wasn't the most welcoming
place for you, but that's not my fault</i>

216
00:17:09,194 --> 00:17:12,595
<i>I can only control what
happens on 100 yards of gridiron</i>

217
00:17:12,664 --> 00:17:14,859
But I do know Cleveland never
would have heard of you

218
00:17:14,933 --> 00:17:17,663
<i>if you hadn't come
here to play for me</i>

219
00:17:21,073 --> 00:17:25,009
<i>What I did here was
on my back and my sweat</i>

220
00:17:25,844 --> 00:17:27,368
What good would
your time be here

221
00:17:27,446 --> 00:17:31,041
<i>if you're not willing to help
the next kid get his chance?</i>

222
00:17:32,584 --> 00:17:34,074
<i>A kid like you</i>

223
00:17:39,224 --> 00:17:41,055
<i>He's got talent, Jim</i>

224
00:17:42,528 --> 00:17:44,826
<i>Maybe even your
kind of talent</i>

225
00:17:46,632 --> 00:17:49,692
<i>Didn't mention anything in your
telegram about bringing Jim Brown</i>

226
00:17:49,768 --> 00:17:52,168
<i>I hope you don't mind signing
a couple hundred autographs</i>

227
00:17:52,237 --> 00:17:54,762
<i>Ha! Jim loves to sign
autographs, don't you?</i>

228
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:56,808
<i>You know, Jim, I'm a Syracuse man myself</i>

229
00:17:56,875 --> 00:17:58,172
<i>Class of '331</i>

00:18:01,947 --> 00:18:04,415
Is that Bill Clark
from Notre Dame?

232
00:18:04,650 --> 00:18:06,709
<i>Yeah,
been here all week</i>

233
00:18:07,086 --> 00:18:10,954
<i>Yeah, not enough he steals Ramsey
right out from under my nose</i>

234
00:18:11,023 --> 00:18:13,753
<i>That's your man
right there, Ernie Davis</i>

235

<i>11 varsity letters
Plays baseball, too</i>

236
00:18:17,196 --> 00:18:20,256
<i>In fact, there's not
a sport he doesn't play</i>

237
00:18:21,500 --> 00:18:23,331
<i>Try it one more time</i>

238
00:18:41,620 --> 00:18:43,520
<i>Let's see what he does</i>

239
00:18:54,399 --> 00:18:56,492
<i>He's too fast
for these kids</i>

240
00:18:56,568 --> 00:18:58,035
<i>He's too fast
for anybody</i>

241
00:19:13,652 --> 00:19:17,452
<i>Ben Schwartzwalder Head coach,
Syracuse University Orangemen</i>

242
00:19:17,523 --> 00:19:18,649
<i>Pleasure to
meet you, sir</i>

243
00:19:18,724 --> 00:19:20,988
<i>Pleasure to
meet you, son</i>

244
00:19:21,693 --> 00:19:23,718
<i>Do you know
why I'm here?</i>

245
00:19:24,129 --> 00:19:26,393
Same reason as
Notre Dame, sir?

246
00:19:26,465 --> 00:19:28,763
<i>Yeah, same reason</i>

247
00:19:29,301 --> 00:19:33,362
<i>But don't just take my
word for it Jim! Jim!</i>

248
00:19:34,039 --> 00:19:35,165
<i>I'll be right back
Thank you</i>

249
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:36,798
<i>There's another fan
who'd like to tell you</i>

250
00:19:36,875 --> 00:19:40,072
<i>how much he'd like to
see you come play for us</i>

251
00:19:40,145 --> 00:19:41,373

<i>1332 yards and three
touchdowns in the Cotton Bowl</i>

254
00:19:48,921 --> 00:19:50,684
<i>We lost the Cotton Bowl</i>

255
00:19:50,756 --> 00:19:53,589
But that sweep where you
cut back to the middle?

256
00:19:53,659 --> 00:19:56,685
<i>My mama and me watched that game on
a television set in Sears and Roebuck</i>

257
00:19:56,762 --> 00:19:59,026
<i>She's a big fan
of yours, too</i>

258
00:19:59,364 --> 00:20:00,388
Oh!

259
00:20:00,465 --> 00:20:01,693
Is she?

260
00:20:04,069 --> 00:20:06,731
<i>Mr Brown? I hope you like caramel cake</i>

261
00:20:06,805 --> 00:20:07,931
<i>I do, thank you</i>

262
00:20:08,006 --> 00:20:09,064
<i>Here you go</i>

263
00:20:11,009 --> 00:20:14,240
<i>I understand you're from
Pennsylvania, Mr Davis</i>

264
00:20:15,214 --> 00:20:16,977
What brings you up
here to New York?

265
00:20:17,049 --> 00:20:18,744
<i>I asked him to come</i>

266
00:20:18,817 --> 00:20:20,910
<i>To help me make up my mind</i>

267
00:20:21,420 --> 00:20:24,583
<i>That's good to have family like that</i>

268
00:20:25,157 --> 00:20:27,091
<i>You close to your family,
Mr Schwartzwalder?</i>

269
00:20:27,159 --> 00:20:29,753
<i>I have a wife
and two daughters</i>

270
00:20:30,095 --> 00:20:33,360
<i>And they never ask my
opinion about anything</i>

271
00:20:34,566 --> 00:20:36,124
<i>Seems to work</i>

272
00:20:39,037 --> 00:20:40,231
<i>Mr Brown?</i>

273
00:20:40,305 --> 00:20:41,329
<i>Yes, sir</i>

274
00:20:41,406 --> 00:20:44,136
Were you the first in your
family to go to college?

275
00:20:44,209 --> 00:20:45,870
<i>Yes, sir, I was</i>

276
00:20:47,279 --> 00:20:52,808
<i>And what's it like at
Syracuse for men like us?</i>

277
00:20:57,322 --> 00:20:59,620
<i>It's great
It's good</i>

278
00:21:06,999 --> 00:21:10,901
<i>I suppose I'd say it's not that
different than a lot of places</i>

279
00:21:13,405 --> 00:21:15,873
<i>This cake is delicious</i>

280
00:21:19,911 --> 00:21:24,871
<i>I want you to go out Keep
going Back Back All right</i>

281
00:21:25,217 --> 00:21:28,084
<i>Mr Brown, I'm not real big on lacrosse</i>

282
00:21:28,153 --> 00:21:29,848
<i>Jim
Jim</i>

283
00:21:30,322 --> 00:21:32,654
<i>Okay, let's see
what you've got</i>

284
00:21:34,793 --> 00:21:37,227
<i>It's not as easy
as it looks, is it?</i>

285
00:21:37,296 --> 00:21:38,285
<i>I'm all right</i>

286
00:21:40,399 --> 00:21:42,697
<i>You see, lacrosse
isn't just a sport</i>

287
00:21:42,768 --> 00:21:46,795
<i>The Indians used it to settle
their conflicts and heal the sick</i>

288
00:21:46,872 --> 00:21:49,898
<i>They also played it as
a preparation for war</i>

289
00:21:51,643 --> 00:21:54,806
<i>Make no mistake, there's
a war in this country,</i>

290
00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:57,940
<i>but for men like us, it's
not on the football field</i>

291
00:21:58,016 --> 00:22:01,577
So if all you nice folks
are offering the same thing,

292
00:22:01,653 --> 00:22:03,120
what makes you different?

293
00:22:03,188 --> 00:22:04,177
<i>Well, Syracuse</i>

294
00:22:04,256 --> 00:22:06,247
<i>Not Syracuse You</i>

295
00:22:07,092 --> 00:22:09,026
<i>I'm not sure I follow
you, Mr Davis</i>

296
00:22:09,094 --> 00:22:13,224
My grandson might be spending the
next four years listening to you,

297
00:22:14,599 --> 00:22:16,294
<i>learning from you</i>

298
00:22:17,602 --> 00:22:20,298
<i>So, I suppose what I'm
asking, Mr Schwartzwalder,</i>

299
00:22:20,372 --> 00:22:24,069
is what kind
of man are you?

300
00:22:26,912 --> 00:22:29,540
<i>I just want to be the best
player I can be, you know</i>

301
00:22:29,614 --> 00:22:31,445
I want to be
like you, Jim Brown,

302
00:22:31,516 --> 00:22:34,781
first-team All-American
then straight to the NFL,

303
00:22:34,853 --> 00:22:38,812
<i>and I need you to tell me exactly
where I gotta be to get there</i>

304
00:22:39,491 --> 00:22:44,087
<i>Look, if you go to Syracuse,
it's not gonna be easy for you</i>

305
00:22:45,130 --> 00:22:48,463
<i>But Schwartzwalder, he's one of
the best coaches in college ball</i>

306
00:22:48,533 --> 00:22:52,333
<i>Now you're fast,
but he'll make you faster</i>

307
00:22:52,904 --> 00:22:56,396
<i>You run hard, he'll show
you how to run harder</i>

308
00:22:57,843 --> 00:23:01,335
<i>And you're good,
but he'll make you better</i>

309
00:23:02,314 --> 00:23:03,781
And if you ever
tell him I said that,

310
00:23:03,849 --> 00:23:08,343
<i>I'll jump on the first plane from
Cleveland and come and wring your neck</i>

311
00:23:10,155 --> 00:23:12,089
<i>Now let's get out of here</i>

312
00:23:12,157 --> 00:23:16,753
<i>Let me tell you something about Jim
and I, we had our differences at times</i>

313
00:23:17,863 --> 00:23:22,300
<i>So whatever he told you about me,
I would take it with a grain of salt</i>

314
00:23:24,636 --> 00:23:27,264
Even if he said you
were a good coach?

315
00:23:29,708 --> 00:23:34,543
<i>Well, in that case, son, I would tell
you that too much salt is bad for you</i>

316
00:24:01,506 --> 00:24:04,270
Ernie? Ernie Davis?

317
00:24:04,609 --> 00:24:06,338
<i>How'd you guess?</i>

318
00:24:06,411 --> 00:24:07,503
<i>Welcome</i>

319
00:24:07,579 --> 00:24:10,377
<i>I'm Lew Andreas, the
athletic director Come on!</i>

320
00:24:10,449 --> 00:24:12,747
<i>I'll give you a tour of the
campus on the way to your dorm</i>

321
00:24:12,818 --> 00:24:14,513
<i>All right
Syracuse has a storied</i>

322
00:24:14,586 --> 00:24:16,577
<i>academic tradition, Ernie
Really?</i>

323
00:24:16,655 --> 00:24:19,089
Steven Crane attended
the university in 1891

324
00:24:19,157 --> 00:24:21,819
<i>and wrote The Red Badge
of Courage Hey, Lew!</i>

325
00:24:21,893 --> 00:24:25,454
<i>Harry! Sorry, I'll be
right back Right back</i>

326
00:24:25,964 --> 00:24:27,829
<i>Harry
How are you?</i>

327
00:26:13,939 --> 00:26:18,000
<i>No one from here has ever won,
if that's what you're looking for</i>

328
00:26:19,711 --> 00:26:22,145
No harm in dreaming,
right, Coach?

329
00:26:22,380 --> 00:26:26,248
<i>It's not about winning trophies,
Davis It's about winning games</i>

330
00:26:26,318 --> 00:26:28,343
<i>I'll see you at practice</i>

331
00:26:31,189 --> 00:26:32,918
Get up! Get up!

332
00:26:32,991 --> 00:26:35,824
<i>That was plum awful!
Now, last one runs a lap</i>

333
00:26:35,894 --> 00:26:37,327
<i>Let's go!</i>

334
00:26:38,563 --> 00:26:39,757
<i>Run a lap</i>

335
00:26:39,831 --> 00:26:40,991
<i>five, six</i>

336
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:44,364
<i>Youmans, you move
like a walrus</i>

337
00:26:44,903 --> 00:26:47,303
Come on! Like a big,
old elephant walrus!

338
00:26:47,372 --> 00:26:50,307
<i>Gerhard, goose-step
Make your ancestors proud</i>

339
00:26:50,375 --> 00:26:51,865
<i>Ease up, Davis</i>

340
00:26:52,344 --> 00:26:54,369
What are you smiling at?

341
00:26:54,446 --> 00:26:56,971
<i>This fine institution is
giving you three hots and a cot</i>

342
00:26:57,048 --> 00:26:59,278
<i>I do not intend to let
them waste their money</i>

343
00:26:59,351 --> 00:27:00,841
<i>Get them up, come on</i>

344
00:27:00,919 --> 00:27:02,045
<i>Right about now,
I bet you're wondering</i>

345
00:27:02,120 --> 00:27:03,883
what happened to that nice
gentleman that visited your house

346
00:27:03,955 --> 00:27:06,048
and begged you
to come here, huh?

347
00:27:06,124 --> 00:27:08,786
<i>Let's go! Now make
no mistake, gentlemen</i>

348
00:27:08,860 --> 00:27:13,559
<i>No matter what anyone else tells you,
you are not here to just play football</i>

349
00:27:13,632 --> 00:27:15,497
<i>You are offside</i>

350
00:27:15,567 --> 00:27:18,001
<i>You are here at Syracuse to win games</i>

351
00:27:18,069 --> 00:27:22,165
<i>And you can't win games if you
can't out-perform the other team</i>

352
00:27:22,240 --> 00:27:23,935
<i>Don't you step on
my All-Americans</i>

353
00:27:24,009 --> 00:27:26,534
If you step on my All-Americans,
I will reach down your throat,

354
00:27:26,611 --> 00:27:29,273
grab your donuts and
tie them to your tonsils!

355
00:27:29,347 --> 00:27:30,473
Good hit!

356
00:27:30,548 --> 00:27:31,537
Take him down!

357
00:27:31,616 --> 00:27:33,846
<i>So, you're the
next Jim Brown, huh?</i>

358
00:27:34,185 --> 00:27:35,516
<i>Yeah, I can see
the resemblance</i>

359
00:27:35,587 --> 00:27:38,249
<i>Yeah, except Brown was
always mad about something</i>

360
00:27:38,323 --> 00:27:40,587
<i>Don't be fooled
by the smile</i>

361
00:27:40,659 --> 00:27:41,990
<i>Well, he's funnier
than Jimmy</i>

362
00:27:42,060 --> 00:27:43,084
<i>Yeah</i>

363
00:27:43,161 --> 00:27:46,221
<i>Well, maybe he can entertain
us You dance, Davis?</i>

364
00:27:46,297 --> 00:27:48,060
<i>Not as good
as me, Lundy</i>

365
00:27:48,133 --> 00:27:50,829
Come on! Get up!
Move! Move! Move! Move!

366
00:27:50,902 --> 00:27:53,200
<i>You should know, you
never call Coach, "Sarge "</i>

367
00:27:53,271 --> 00:27:56,570
<i>He was a captain, jumped out of
airplanes, stormed a bridge in Normandy</i>

368
00:27:56,641 --> 00:27:58,768
<i>Killed people,
won medals</i>

369
00:27:58,843 --> 00:28:01,243
<i>By the way, I'm Gerhard
Schwedes, halfback</i>

370
00:28:01,312 --> 00:28:04,145
<i>Roger, everybody calls
me Hound Dog though</i>

371
00:28:04,215 --> 00:28:06,240
<i>Maury Youmans, center</i>

372
00:28:06,317 --> 00:28:09,286
<i>I'll be keeping your
jersey clean next year</i>

373
00:28:09,888 --> 00:28:12,584
He embarrassed you!
Embarrassed you!

374
00:28:13,191 --> 00:28:16,092
<i>I want you to move Davis
from freshman to varsity</i>

375
00:28:16,161 --> 00:28:18,891
<i>But he won't be eligible
to play in any games, Ben</i>

376
00:28:18,963 --> 00:28:21,124
<i>Why don't we just let him catch
his stride with the other freshmen?</i>

377
00:28:21,199 --> 00:28:23,633
First, when he does
become eligible next year,

378
00:28:23,702 --> 00:28:25,465
<i>I want him to hit
the ground running</i>

379
00:28:25,537 --> 00:28:28,472
<i>Second, he's gonna
raise everybody's game</i>

380
00:28:28,540 --> 00:28:30,804
<i>He'll probably be the best
running back they face all year</i>

381
00:28:30,875 --> 00:28:31,864
<i>I got you</i>

382
00:28:31,943 --> 00:28:34,377
<i>Third, that's just
the way I want it done</i>

383
00:28:36,614 --> 00:28:39,879
<i>Jack Buckley, right tackle,
sophomore Call me JB</i>

384
00:28:40,819 --> 00:28:43,583
<i>I was a defensive end
in high school Philly</i>

385
00:28:43,655 --> 00:28:46,283
<i>But I think they're
gonna move me to tackle</i>

386
00:28:46,357 --> 00:28:48,552
What we up to?
Three miles?

387
00:28:48,626 --> 00:28:50,253
<i>Don't know
Never count</i>

388
00:28:50,328 --> 00:28:51,795
You hear a train?

389
00:28:51,863 --> 00:28:53,262
Why? Is it making you nervous?

390
00:28:53,331 --> 00:28:55,595
<i>No, I'm not nervous</i>

391
00:28:56,201 --> 00:28:57,725
Can we get off
these tracks?

392
00:28:57,802 --> 00:28:59,929
<i>Yeah, I'm sorry
I'm just used to it</i>

393
00:29:00,004 --> 00:29:01,972
<i>And when you use your meal
voucher in the student union</i>

394
00:29:02,040 --> 00:29:03,837
<i>Right stay away from the meatloaf</i>

395
00:29:03,908 --> 00:29:05,569
<i>What else?
Girls</i>

396
00:29:05,643 --> 00:29:09,443
<i>You'll find a Negro polar bear
before you find a Negro coed</i>

397
00:29:10,582 --> 00:29:13,642
<i>Good morning, sir
Beautiful day, isn't it?</i>

398
00:29:15,420 --> 00:29:19,117
<i>I swear, sometimes you feel
like you're on the moon here</i>

399
00:29:21,292 --> 00:29:23,522
<i>Yes, yes,
that's her sister</i>

400
00:29:24,562 --> 00:29:26,427
Sarette, what did Petey
say about that broad?

401
00:29:26,498 --> 00:29:28,659
<i>Yeah, it's her
little sister</i>

402
00:29:28,733 --> 00:29:32,430
<i>I don't know about our team yet,
but theirs is in mid-season form</i>

403
00:29:32,504 --> 00:29:34,472
<i>At least her sister is</i>

404
00:29:51,956 --> 00:29:53,423
ERNIE: Coach
wanted to see me?

405
00:29:53,491 --> 00:29:54,924
<i>He's in his office</i>

406
00:29:57,095 --> 00:29:58,289
<i>Knock</i>

407
00:30:10,141 --> 00:30:12,302
You wanted to
see me, Coach?

408
00:30:12,944 --> 00:30:14,206
<i>Mmm-hmm</i>

409
00:30:14,746 --> 00:30:16,873
<i>Davis, my system
is simple</i>

410
00:30:17,348 --> 00:30:19,077
<i>Conditioning,
teamwork</i>

411
00:30:19,150 --> 00:30:22,142
<i>And on my team, I expect every
player to know his job</i>

412
00:30:22,220 --> 00:30:23,983
<i>Know his place on the field</i>

413
00:30:24,055 --> 00:30:26,922
<i>Quarterback, running back, lineman</i>

414
00:30:27,292 --> 00:30:30,625
<i>That way, nobody
steps on anybody's toes</i>

415
00:30:31,763 --> 00:30:33,993
<i>Same holds true
off the field</i>

416
00:30:34,632 --> 00:30:36,361
<i>I'm not sure how
you mean, Coach</i>

417
00:30:36,434 --> 00:30:37,423
<i>Well</i>

418
00:30:38,937 --> 00:30:42,373
<i>There are some lines that some
people don't care to see crossed,</i>

419
00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,273
<i>just like there are some toes
that shouldn't be stepped on</i>

420
00:30:45,343 --> 00:30:49,006
<i>And I expect my players
not to cross those lines</i>

421
00:30:52,784 --> 00:30:57,312
Now, you must have a
girlfriend back home, right?

422
00:30:57,388 --> 00:30:59,618
<i>Good-looking
fellow like you</i>

423
00:30:59,958 --> 00:31:02,825
<i>You might want to
keep in touch with her</i>

424
00:31:06,064 --> 00:31:10,398
<i>You're a smart kid, Davis I don't
have to spell it out for you, do I?</i>

425
00:31:12,370 --> 00:31:14,167
Anything else, Coach?

426
00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:16,898
<i>No</i>

427
00:31:16,975 --> 00:31:17,964
May I go now?

428
00:31:20,845 --> 00:31:21,937
<i>Yes</i>

429
00:31:29,020 --> 00:31:31,215
<i>We call that,
"The white girl speech,"</i>

430
00:31:31,289 --> 00:31:32,847
<i>and don't worry,
we all get it</i>

431
00:31:32,924 --> 00:31:35,916
<i>That's funny I don't remember seeing
that in the campus brochure, JB</i>

432
00:31:37,095 --> 00:31:38,460
<i>Avatus Stone</i>

433
00:31:38,529 --> 00:31:39,518
Avatus what?

434
00:31:39,831 --> 00:31:42,265
<i>Avatus Stone
Quarterback Negro</i>

435
00:31:42,333 --> 00:31:44,460
<i>First one Schwartzwalder
recruited here</i>

436
00:31:44,535 --> 00:31:45,729
What happened to him?

437
00:31:45,803 --> 00:31:46,963
<i>He got run off</i>

438
00:31:47,038 --> 00:31:48,437
<i>What do you mean,
"Run off?"</i>

439
00:31:48,506 --> 00:31:50,906
<i>One night, just
disappeared Gone</i>

440
00:31:50,975 --> 00:31:52,704
And then Jimmy
Brown shows up,

441
00:31:52,777 --> 00:31:54,870
<i>and all Jim hears is,
"Don't be like Avatus Stone</i>

442
00:31:54,946 --> 00:31:56,538
<i>"Whatever you do, don't
be like Avatus Stone "</i>

443
00:31:56,614 --> 00:31:59,174
<i>Wait But what did he do?
Did he kill somebody?</i>

444
00:31:59,250 --> 00:32:01,878
<i>Worse He dated
a white girl</i>

445
00:32:02,754 --> 00:32:04,381
<i>Majorette, blonde</i>

446
00:32:04,622 --> 00:32:08,786
<i>Schwartzwalder wouldn't even give
Jim a scholarship until sophomore year</i>

447
00:32:08,860 --> 00:32:10,088
<i>Made him prove himself</i>

448
00:32:10,161 --> 00:32:11,321
<i>Yeah</i>

449
00:32:11,396 --> 00:32:15,628
<i>Just goes to show, Coach likes
winning more than he dislikes Negroes</i>

450
00:32:15,867 --> 00:32:16,925
<i>A little</i>

451
00:32:17,001 --> 00:32:18,229
<i>See you
at the room</i>

452
00:32:40,158 --> 00:32:41,182
<i>Hey</i>

453
00:32:48,933 --> 00:32:50,730
<i>Excuse me,
Hound Dog</i>

454
00:33:05,550 --> 00:33:07,450
Would you look
at that, boys?

455
00:33:07,518 --> 00:33:11,818
<i>If it isn't enough they let a
freshman dress in the varsity locker,</i>

456
00:33:11,889 --> 00:33:13,982
<i>now they went and anointed him
the second coming of Jim Brown</i>

457
00:33:15,159 --> 00:33:16,683
<i>What's your
problem, Lundy?</i>

458
00:33:16,761 --> 00:33:19,594
<i>My problem is I was raised to
believe you should have to earn things</i>

459
00:33:19,664 --> 00:33:21,598
<i>That's not all you were
raised to believe, now was it?</i>

460
00:33:23,901 --> 00:33:25,198
<i>You got a big mouth, JB</i>

461
00:33:25,269 --> 00:33:26,497
<i>Yeah, I do</i>

462
00:33:29,640 --> 00:33:31,198
SIMMONS: How about
the next play, Ben?

463
00:33:31,275 --> 00:33:34,301
<i>This'll be strong load
right, 42 shovel pass</i>

464
00:33:35,480 --> 00:33:37,675
<i>We can use
this third short</i>

465
00:33:38,883 --> 00:33:41,044
<i>Strong load right
Right, 42 shovel pass</i>

466
00:33:41,119 --> 00:33:42,882
What you got there, Davis?

467
00:33:45,390 --> 00:33:47,449
<i>It's this jersey, Coach</i>

468
00:33:47,525 --> 00:33:49,789
What, something
wrong with it?

469
00:33:49,861 --> 00:33:50,850
<i>Yeah, I</i>

470
00:33:50,928 --> 00:33:53,055
What is it? Too big? Too tight, what?

471
00:33:53,131 --> 00:33:54,155
<i>Oh, no Not at all It's just</i>

472
00:33:54,232 --> 00:33:56,393
Then what is it?

473
00:33:56,768 --> 00:33:58,736
<i>Somebody made
a mistake</i>

474
00:33:59,404 --> 00:34:01,668
<i>They gave me
the wrong number</i>

475
00:34:02,573 --> 00:34:05,565
<i>Mr Davis, I put that
jersey in your locker</i>

476
00:34:05,643 --> 00:34:07,508
Are you accusing me
of making a mistake?

477
00:34:07,578 --> 00:34:09,569
<i>No, sir
Well then, what?</i>

478
00:34:12,650 --> 00:34:14,140
<i>Coach, I'm</i>

479
00:34:16,554 --> 00:34:18,215
<i>I'm not Jim Brown</i>

480
00:34:19,891 --> 00:34:21,449
God, I hope not!

481
00:34:23,528 --> 00:34:25,462
<i>And, God, I hope so</i>

482
00:34:26,097 --> 00:34:27,997
<i>That is your number</i>

483
00:34:28,433 --> 00:34:32,597
<i>The day you're not up to it, I'll
take it away as quick as a hiccup</i>

484
00:34:33,304 --> 00:34:35,169
<i>Now, get out of here</i>

485
00:34:39,744 --> 00:34:42,110
<i>Tight right, 334 right dig
On one On one Ready</i>

486
00:34:42,180 --> 00:34:43,238
Break!

487
00:34:43,915 --> 00:34:46,679
<i>Offense, I want to see
you fire off the ball</i>

488
00:34:46,751 --> 00:34:48,582
<i>Fire off the ball</i>

489
00:34:48,686 --> 00:34:49,675
Red?
Sir!

490
00:34:49,754 --> 00:34:51,745
Are you in
or out there?

491
00:34:53,424 --> 00:34:55,483
Strong left,
strong left!

492
00:34:55,993 --> 00:34:57,790
<i>Strong left Why don't you
watch the sweep, right there?</i>

493
00:34:57,862 --> 00:34:59,261
Sir!
Ready?

494
00:35:00,164 --> 00:35:01,324
<i>On one</i>

495
00:35:10,775 --> 00:35:12,174
God damn it!

496
00:35:16,380 --> 00:35:19,008
<i>Lundy, you got
yourself planted</i>

497
00:35:19,083 --> 00:35:22,883
<i>Get off your heels and get
after it That was embarrassing</i>

498
00:35:25,423 --> 00:35:26,412
<i>Davis looks good</i>

499
00:35:26,491 --> 00:35:27,981
<i>Looks good, Ben</i>

500
00:35:30,294 --> 00:35:31,591
<i>Five, three,
cover two Ready?</i>

501
00:35:31,662 --> 00:35:32,890
Break!

502
00:35:34,031 --> 00:35:38,127
<i>Double tight, double tight Watch
the sweep left! Watch the sweep!</i>

503
00:36:00,591 --> 00:36:02,286
<i>That was a cheap shot</i>

504
00:36:02,360 --> 00:36:05,796
<i>Oh, he's gonna get a lot worse
than that before he's done here</i>

505
00:36:05,863 --> 00:36:08,263
<i>You've got something to say, 44?</i>

506
00:36:14,438 --> 00:36:15,996
<i>You all right?

<i>That since I'm not here
because of my grades,</i>

575
00:40:44,809 --> 00:40:46,367
or my money,

00:40:46,444 --> 00:40:48,674
<i>that I'm not
a serious person</i>

577
00:40:49,413 --> 00:40:51,108

<i>Let's hope their recruiting is
better than their running game</i>

585

Come on!

592
00:42:24,642 --> 00:42:28,510
Gentlemen, it is not okay
to lose to an inferior team,

especially on our home turf!

594
00:42:31,248 --> 00:42:35,207
Now, we gave no effort out on that
field tonight, so we should feel it now!

<i>Don't you puke
on my gym floor!</i>

<i>Yes, sir</i>

602

Gentlemen, do you think you
played good football last year?

603
00:43:01,712 --> 00:43:03,111
<i>Think again</i>

604
00:43:04,081 --> 00:43:07,209
<i>You think you're here just
to wear a varsity jacket</i>

605
00:43:07,284 --> 00:43:09,252
<i>and impress the ladies?</i>

606
00:43:10,287 --> 00:43:11,720
<i>Think again</i>

607

what pain is, think again</i>

609
00:43:31,976 --> 00:43:34,604
Now, does anyone
know the last year

610

national championship?

611
00:43:38,682 --> 00:43:39,774
Hmm?

612

you do when you see this?</i>

771
00:52:56,873 --> 00:52:58,738
<i>Now the defense,
they have to shift</i>

772
00:52:58,808 --> 00:52:59,866
<i>We move to the right</i>

773
00:52:59,943 --> 00:53:03,401

from nose up to opposite shoulder</i>

774

He goes on the left side</i>

<i>I'm gonna leave the huddle,</i>

776
00:53:08,818 --> 00:53:12,151

out right, just like normal</i>

778
00:53:16,092 --> 00:53:18,151
<i>Except before we're set,
you're gonna run left</i>

779
00:53:18,228 --> 00:53:19,252
He runs left,

780
00:53:19,329 --> 00:53:21,297
<i>and you're gonna line
up on the left side</i>

781
00:53:21,364 --> 00:53:22,763
<i>And he sets up
on the left side</i>

782

791
00:53:48,024 --> 00:53:50,083

Do we shift again, Coach?</i>

792
00:53:50,160 --> 00:53:51,787
<i>Yes, they shift
They all shift</i>

793

00:58:00,310 --> 00:58:04,838
Now, we barely got by West Virginia
when we played them here last year,

843
00:58:04,914 --> 00:58:08,372
<i>and they've been licking their
chops waiting for us ever since</i>

844
00:58:08,451 --> 00:58:11,215
<i>They play by a
different set of rules</i>

845
00:58:11,588 --> 00:58:13,419
<i>It will be hostile</i>

846
00:58:14,224 --> 00:58:16,454
Their fans are unruly,

847
00:58:16,759 --> 00:58:19,887
<i>especially when they're
playing against a team that</i>

848
00:58:19,963 --> 00:58:22,625
<i>looks a little
different than they do</i>

849
00:58:24,167 --> 00:58:25,657
<i>Now, load up</i>

850
00:58:40,383 --> 00:58:41,782
God damn it!

851
00:58:42,151 --> 00:58:44,210
Hey, Squirrel!

852
00:58:44,287 --> 00:58:46,812
<i>Didn't I tell you to
put new laces in these?</i>

853
00:58:46,890 --> 00:58:49,085
<i>I forgot I'll do it now</i>

854
00:58:49,158 --> 00:58:50,887
<i>His name is Donald</i>

855
00:58:51,361 --> 00:58:52,350
What?

856
00:58:52,428 --> 00:58:54,828
<i>His name is Donald</i>

857
00:58:58,701 --> 00:59:01,795
<i>Hell, Squirrel, I don't
know which one's worse</i>

858
00:59:02,105 --> 00:59:07,270
<i>But you see, Davis, around
here, Squirrel finishes the laces</i>

859
00:59:07,777 --> 00:59:11,042
<i>If it makes you happy,
you can shine them for me</i>

860
00:59:12,248 --> 00:59:13,715
Hey, come on!

861
00:59:18,421 --> 00:59:19,854
Get him off!

862
00:59:20,523 --> 00:59:22,991
Hey! Knock it off!

863
00:59:23,560 --> 00:59:24,959
Hey!

864
00:59:25,628 --> 00:59:28,028
<i>What the hell's
going on in here?</i>

865
00:59:31,501 --> 00:59:33,765
Where are you going,
Davis? Davis!

866
00:59:33,836 --> 00:59:35,394
<i>I'm talking to you!</i>

867
00:59:35,471 --> 00:59:38,702
<i>Hey, you guys all saw it
Coach, he went crazy on me</i>

868
00:59:43,646 --> 00:59:45,546
<i>All right,
everyone, listen up</i>

869
00:59:45,615 --> 00:59:47,913
Everyone is to keep their
helmet on at all times,

870
00:59:47,984 --> 00:59:49,849
<i>whether you're in
the game or not</i>

871
00:59:49,919 --> 00:59:52,649
<i>I don't want anyone
hurt by flying bottles</i>

872
00:59:52,722 --> 00:59:56,021
<i>Davis, Buckley, Baker, you
stay in the middle of the pack</i>

873
00:59:56,092 --> 00:59:57,354
<i>Keep your heads down</i>

874
00:59:57,427 --> 01:00:00,988
<i>It must be Halloween,
'cause here come the spooks!</i>

875
01:00:01,064 --> 01:00:03,225
<i>We'll be safer
out on the field</i>

876
01:00:03,299 --> 01:00:04,425
<i>All right, let's go!</i>

877
01:00:04,500 --> 01:00:05,865
<i>Come on, boys!
Let's go!</i>

878
01:00:05,935 --> 01:00:08,165
<i>The unbeaten
Syracuse Orangemen</i>

879
01:00:08,237 --> 01:00:11,138
<i>have made the journey
to Morgantown, West Virginia</i>

880
01:00:11,207 --> 01:00:14,108
<i>They'll face a rugged
Mountaineer team</i>

881
01:00:35,632 --> 01:00:39,830
<i>And there's the boot Baker
takes the football up to the 20,</i>

882
01:00:40,236 --> 01:00:45,435
<i>the 330, the 40 and he's finally
brought down at the 47-yard line</i>

883
01:00:45,508 --> 01:00:47,533
<i>Offense, let's go
Look alive, let's go</i>

884
01:00:47,610 --> 01:00:51,376
<i>A full house 495 dive
on two, on two Ready?</i>

885
01:00:51,447 --> 01:00:53,642
Thirty-five,
thirty-five!

886
01:00:54,417 --> 01:00:55,941
<i>Okie Okie</i>

887
01:00:57,553 --> 01:00:59,248
<i>Thirty-five,
thirty-five</i>

888
01:00:59,322 --> 01:01:01,620
<i>The Orangemen break
the huddle, first and 10</i>

889
01:01:01,691 --> 01:01:04,455
<i>Out of the full-house
backfield</i>

890
01:01:06,329 --> 01:01:09,992
<i>The give is to Ernie Davis Davis
spins at the line of scrimmage</i>

891
01:01:10,066 --> 01:01:13,627
<i>where he's met by a host
of West Virginia tacklers</i>

892
01:01:16,639 --> 01:01:19,005
Get him off him!
Play football!

893
01:01:22,545 --> 01:01:23,944
<i>Huddle up, 70</i>

894
01:01:24,013 --> 01:01:26,777
<i>We will get no justice
from the refs tonight</i>

895
01:01:26,849 --> 01:01:29,249
<i>All right, guys We're gonna
run it till they stop it</i>

896
01:01:29,318 --> 01:01:31,809
<i>Right, full house 495
dive, on one, on one Ready?</i>

897
01:01:31,888 --> 01:01:33,412
Break!
Break!

898
01:01:34,190 --> 01:01:39,025
<i>Same play! Same play! Same hole
Run it Same play, same hole, on one</i>

899
01:01:39,595 --> 01:01:40,926
<i>Run it
Strong left!</i>

900
01:01:40,997 --> 01:01:42,362
<i>Thanks
Set!</i>

901
01:01:43,666 --> 01:01:45,930
<i>Second down at
six yards to go</i>

902
01:01:46,002 --> 01:01:47,026
Hut one!

903
01:01:47,103 --> 01:01:51,904
<i>The Orangemen go back to Ernie Davis
Davis is met with a wall of Mountaineers</i>

904
01:01:53,242 --> 01:01:56,575
<i>And Davis reverses field
with a tremendous move</i>

905
01:01:56,646 --> 01:01:58,238
<i>What's he doing?</i>

906
01:02:07,957 --> 01:02:09,925
<i>Davis picks up a big block</i>

907
01:02:10,059 --> 01:02:13,995
<i>and with a stiff arm, gets free
into West Virginia territory</i>

908
01:02:17,600 --> 01:02:19,295
<i>Shit, he's going in</i>

909
01:02:20,803 --> 01:02:24,899
<i>He's at the 20,
the 10, inside the 5!</i>

910
01:02:29,779 --> 01:02:31,576
<i>No! Knee down, right here</i>

911
01:02:31,647 --> 01:02:34,013
It certainly appeared
from our vantage point here

912
01:02:34,083 --> 01:02:36,916
<i>that Ernie Davis has
scored on this play</i>

913
01:02:36,986 --> 01:02:38,248
<i>I got you
down at the 1</i>

914
01:02:38,321 --> 01:02:39,310
You were down!

915
01:02:39,388 --> 01:02:40,616
<i>No, I got in,
Mr Official</i>

916
01:02:40,690 --> 01:02:41,679
<i>Sir, I got in
You saw me</i>

917
01:02:41,758 --> 01:02:42,918
You want a
penalty, boy?

918
01:02:42,992 --> 01:02:45,119
<i>Get back in
that huddle now</i>

919
01:02:46,763 --> 01:02:47,957
<i>Brokaw, come here!

<i>Come on, son Let's go

923
01:02:55,204 --> 01:02:56,466
<i>You're holding up the
game Let's go I got it</i>

924
01:02:56,539 --> 01:02:58,302
<i>First down Syracuse</i>

925
01:03:07,383 --> 01:03:10,409
<i>Why'd you pull me, Coach? I
took it down there Let me score</i>

926
01:03:10,486 --> 01:03:12,545
If I let you carry that
ball across the goal line,

927
01:03:12,622 --> 01:03:16,251
<i>all of us, we might not get
back on that bus in one piece</i>

928
01:03:16,726 --> 01:03:19,490
<i>That's the way they
do things down here</i>

929
01:03:20,763 --> 01:03:22,754
<i>Sarette hands off to Brokaw,</i>

930
01:03:22,832 --> 01:03:24,595
<i>who punches the ball home,</i>

931
01:03:24,667 --> 01:03:27,602
<i>and the Orangemen
have grabbed a 6-0 lead</i>

932
01:03:27,670 --> 01:03:30,798
<i>against the Mountaineers
on their own home turf</i>

933
01:03:32,575 --> 01:03:33,633
Go home, blackie!

934
01:03:34,510 --> 01:03:39,413
<i>First down for the Orangemen Ball
at the West Virginia 42-yard line</i>

935
01:03:41,517 --> 01:03:42,643
<i>Sarette with the fake</i>

936
01:03:42,718 --> 01:03:47,553
<i>Ernie Davis across the left side breaks
the tackle and gets into the open field</i>

937
01:03:55,398 --> 01:03:57,332
Good run! Good run!

01:03:57,400 --> 01:03:59,391

<i>Davis,

945
01:04:15,384 --> 01:04:18,114
<i>Now, you got a white man telling
you what you can and can't do</i>

946
01:04:18,187 --> 01:04:20,519

<i>We are still not yet</i>

950
01:04:24,894 --> 01:04:26,122
<i>You're just his
educated nigger</i>

951
01:04:28,998 --> 01:04:31,364
<i>They gonna be
looking up to you</i>

952
01:04:32,201 --> 01:04:35,637
<i>I think you owe them more
than just running a ball</i>

953
01:05:05,835 --> 01:05:07,234
<i>What the hell do you
think you're doing?</i>

954
01:05:07,303 --> 01:05:10,101
What did I tell you
about the rules down here?

955
01:05:10,172 --> 01:05:12,163
<i>What are you We just scored Bullshit</i>

956
01:05:12,241 --> 01:05:15,039
<i>You scored! We're a team I'm the coach</i>

957
01:05:15,111 --> 01:05:17,909
<i>You're a goddamn running back
You're my goddamn running back,</i>

958
01:05:17,980 --> 01:05:21,108
<i>and you will do what I tell
you, when I tell you to do it</i>

959
01:05:21,183 --> 01:05:24,016
<i>Now, you plant your ass
down on that bench</i>

960
01:05:42,238 --> 01:05:43,865
Am I invisible?

961
01:05:44,307 --> 01:05:46,241
What?
Am I invisible to you?

962
01:05:46,309 --> 01:05:50,541
Am I an X, an O in your goddamn playbook,
or do you see a person standing here?

963
01:05:50,613 --> 01:05:53,343
Am I Avatus Stone?
Am I Jim Brown?

964
01:05:53,816 --> 01:05:55,249
<i>Just a running back?
That's bullshit!</i>

965
01:05:55,318 --> 01:05:56,683
<i>You're about
this close, Davis</i>

966
01:05:56,752 --> 01:05:58,117
<i>Come on, let's go</i>

967
01:05:58,187 --> 01:06:00,519
You know, maybe,
just maybe, Coach,

968
01:06:00,589 --> 01:06:03,057
<i>the rules down here
are your rules, too</i>

969
01:06:03,125 --> 01:06:04,683
<i>That's enough
Come on</i>

970
01:06:38,894 --> 01:06:39,952
What?

971
01:06:41,697 --> 01:06:43,130
You all right?

972
01:06:46,702 --> 01:06:47,760
<i>Yeah</i>

973
01:06:52,141 --> 01:06:53,506
<i>Good game</i>

974
01:06:57,747 --> 01:06:59,544
<i>Good game, Ben
Mike?</i>

975
01:06:59,615 --> 01:07:00,604
<i>I tried not to
run up the score</i>

976
01:07:00,683 --> 01:07:03,550
<i>I know You just had
our number tonight</i>

977
01:07:03,619 --> 01:07:06,986
Say, Ben, how many coloreds
you got playing for you?

978
01:07:07,056 --> 01:07:08,080
Three, why?

979
01:07:08,157 --> 01:07:10,421
<i>You just be careful, Ben
They got no discipline</i>

980
01:07:10,493 --> 01:07:14,122
<i>Too many of them and they'll
take the team away from you</i>

981
01:07:14,897 --> 01:07:16,592
<i>Now, you give my
best to Reggie</i>

982
01:07:16,665 --> 01:07:18,098
Coon-lover!

983
01:07:50,399 --> 01:07:51,957
Can I sit down?

984
01:08:05,614 --> 01:08:07,707
<i>I'm sorry I lost my temper</i>

985
01:08:09,819 --> 01:08:13,084
<i>But I'm not sorry I stayed in the
game, and I'm not sorry I scored</i>

986
01:08:13,155 --> 01:08:15,020
Now, what kind of
an apology is this?

987
01:08:15,091 --> 01:08:18,026
<i>I've never walked off
the field for anybody</i>

988
01:08:19,862 --> 01:08:22,353
<i>These people down
here, they're dug in</i>

989
01:08:22,431 --> 01:08:23,693
<i>They're set in their
ways We got</i>

990
01:08:23,766 --> 01:08:24,790
<i>Coach, that</i>

991
01:08:24,867 --> 01:08:26,357
<i>You're just hiding
behind those words</i>

992
01:08:26,435 --> 01:08:27,925
<i>I have a responsibility
to my team, Davis</i>

993
01:08:28,003 --> 01:08:29,561
<i>That's not how
it has to be</i>

994
01:08:29,638 --> 01:08:33,039
<i>Yes Jack, Art and me,
we're all a part of your team</i>

995
01:08:33,943 --> 01:08:37,743
<i>But we can't run across that
goal line down here without you</i>

996
01:08:39,748 --> 01:08:43,047
<i>It doesn't mean a damn
thing unless you're with us</i>

997
01:08:47,022 --> 01:08:48,421
Is that it?

998
01:09:10,412 --> 01:09:12,676
<i>And in college football,

01:09:40,543 --> 01:09:42,170
<i>Davis,
who has been</i>

1009
01:09:42,244 --> 01:09:46,578
<i>nothing short of brilliant
today, reserves the victory</i>

1010
01:09:46,649 --> 01:09:50,210
<i>for coach Ben Schwartzwalder
and the Syracuse Orangemen</i>

1011
01:09:50,286 --> 01:09:51,617
<i>nothing
but a hound dog</i>

1012
01:09:51,687 --> 01:09:52,847
You know it!

1013
01:09:52,922 --> 01:09:55,356
<i>Crying all the time</i>

1014
01:09:56,859 --> 01:10:00,090
<i>Well, you ain't never
caught a rabbit</i>

1015
01:10:00,162 --> 01:10:03,598
<i>And you ain't no
friend of mine</i>

1016
01:10:05,434 --> 01:10:07,129
<i>SIMMONS: Settle down
Listen up, boys</i>

1017
01:10:07,203 --> 01:10:09,501
<i>All right, listen up
Listen up!</i>

1018
01:10:09,572 --> 01:10:10,766
Coach!

1019
01:10:14,210 --> 01:10:17,077
<i>Gentlemen,
congratulations</i>

1020
01:10:18,047 --> 01:10:21,073
<i>Undefeated with a number one
ranking is something to be proud of</i>

1021
01:10:21,150 --> 01:10:22,640
Yeah!

1022
01:10:22,718 --> 01:10:23,707
<i>But</i>

1023
01:10:24,420 --> 01:10:25,444
<i>But</i>

1024
01:10:26,355 --> 01:10:28,983
<i>Mr Andreas
has informed me</i>

1025
01:10:29,425 --> 01:10:32,292
that we have been offered
two different bowl games,

1026
01:10:32,361 --> 01:10:34,386
the Orange Bowl in Miami

1027
01:10:34,930 --> 01:10:37,160
<i>and the Cotton
Bowl in Dallas</i>

1028
01:10:37,499 --> 01:10:41,458
<i>Now, in Miami, we would play
Georgia, ranked ninth in the polls</i>

1029
01:10:41,770 --> 01:10:47,436
<i>And in Dallas, we would play Texas,
ranked second, right behind us</i>

1030
01:10:48,777 --> 01:10:54,272
<i>If we win either game, we
will be the national champions</i>

1031
01:10:55,117 --> 01:10:58,450
<i>Texas is the tougher
opponent, the tougher team</i>

1032
01:10:59,321 --> 01:11:03,553
<i>But to be the best, I believe
you have to beat the best</i>

1033
01:11:06,495 --> 01:11:10,591
<i>So, I guess you know how I
would vote, but this is your vote</i>

1034
01:11:12,034 --> 01:11:15,470
<i>This is your team
Your decision</i>

1035
01:11:20,909 --> 01:11:22,069
<i>Texas</i>

1036
01:11:25,381 --> 01:11:26,871
<i>Texas</i>

1037
01:11:27,249 --> 01:11:28,773
<i>Texas</i>

1038
01:11:28,851 --> 01:11:30,182
<i>Texas</i>

1039
01:11:30,252 --> 01:11:31,446
<i>Texas
Texas</i>

1040
01:11:31,520 --> 01:11:32,714
<i>Texas
Texas</i>

1041
01:11:32,788 --> 01:11:33,914
<i>Texas</i>

1042
01:11:33,989 --> 01:11:35,047
<i>Texas</i>

1043
01:11:35,124 --> 01:11:36,182
<i>Texas</i>

1044
01:11:36,325 --> 01:11:38,054
<i>Texas</i>

1045
01:11:38,127 --> 01:11:40,027
<i>Looking forward to it!
Texas</i>

1046
01:11:40,095 --> 01:11:41,323
<i>Texas
Texas!</i>

<i>Texas
Texas</i>

1048
01:11:43,032 --> 01:11:44,192
<i>Texas</i>

1049
01:11:50,739 --> 01:11:52,604
A lot of people think
the Texas Longhorns

1050
01:11:52,741 --> 01:11:54,606
<i>are the best team
in the nation</i>

1051
01:11:54,677 --> 01:11:56,406
<i>One big reason is Clay Taylor</i>

1052
01:11:56,478 --> 01:11:59,038
All-American, best Division
One tackle in the nation

1053
01:11:59,114 --> 01:12:01,309
<i>three years in a row</i>

1054
01:12:04,353 --> 01:12:08,084
Now, some folks even think that the
only reason that we are undefeated

1055
01:12:08,157 --> 01:12:11,786
<i>is because we have not met
Clay Taylor and his teammates</i>

1056
01:12:13,495 --> 01:12:17,056
<i>I want everyone to take a good long
look at what we're up against here</i>

1057
01:12:17,132 --> 01:12:20,329
<i>because in Texas,
football is a religion</i>

1058
01:12:28,243 --> 01:12:30,939
You think we been south?

1059
01:12:31,013 --> 01:12:33,243
<i>We ain't been south
till we go to Texas</i>

1060
01:12:54,536 --> 01:12:56,094
<i>Schwedes,
give me a goose-step</i>

1061
01:13:13,822 --> 01:13:17,622
<i>We are now faced
with a far different problem</i>

1062
01:13:17,693 --> 01:13:22,096
<i>The forcible integration of the
public schools of Little Rock</i>

1063
01:13:22,164 --> 01:13:26,794
<i>against the overwhelming
sentiment of the people of the area</i>

1064
01:13:37,312 --> 01:13:39,041
<i>Two, four, six, eight!</i>

1065
01:13:39,114 --> 01:13:40,775
<i>We don't want to integrate!</i>

1066
01:13:41,083 --> 01:13:42,675
<i>Two, four, six, eight!</i>

1067
01:13:42,751 --> 01:13:44,651
<i>We don't want to integrate!</i>

1068
01:14:00,402 --> 01:14:02,734
<i>We still have
the attitude of love,</i>

1069
01:14:02,805 --> 01:14:07,504
<i>we still have the method
of passive resistance</i>

1070
01:14:07,576 --> 01:14:10,841
<i>and we are still
insisting emphatically,</i>

1071
01:14:10,913 --> 01:14:13,575
<i>that violence is
self-defeating</i>

1072
01:14:13,949 --> 01:14:16,975
<i>That he who lives by the
sword will perish by the sword</i>

1073
01:14:42,177 --> 01:14:43,769
<i>This is quite a ruckus</i>

1074
01:14:43,846 --> 01:14:45,746
<i>Hey, Ernie,
Roger Page, Channel Nine</i>

1075
01:14:45,814 --> 01:14:47,782
<i>They're calling this game
the North against the South</i>

1076
01:14:47,850 --> 01:14:49,647
<i>In light of what's
going on in this country,</i>

1077
01:14:49,718 --> 01:14:52,016
do you feel added pressure
to represent change?

1078
01:14:52,087 --> 01:14:55,181
<i>We don't concern
ourselves with politics</i>

1079
01:14:55,257 --> 01:14:57,691
<i>We're just here to
play a great football game</i>

1080
01:14:58,126 --> 01:14:59,218
<i>and take home
the championship</i>

1081
01:14:59,294 --> 01:15:01,558
<i>To be honest, Mr Page,
when I'm out on that field,</i>

1082
01:15:01,630 --> 01:15:04,224
<i>I only think about
winning the game</i>

1083
01:15:04,833 --> 01:15:08,496
<i>But that doesn't mean I don't
know the color of my own skin</i>

1084
01:15:11,240 --> 01:15:12,969
<i>Let's check in</i>

1085
01:15:17,980 --> 01:15:19,675
<i>We've got a problem, Ben</i>

1086
01:15:19,815 --> 01:15:20,907
What?

1087
01:15:21,116 --> 01:15:24,984
<i>The Aristocrat Hotel does not
allow coloreds to stay here</i>

1088
01:15:26,688 --> 01:15:28,849
<i>I need my team together, Lew</i>

1089
01:15:28,924 --> 01:15:32,121
<i>Now, you do whatever it takes
to make that happen</i>

1090
01:15:32,461 --> 01:15:35,362
<i>What's the problem?
What's the problem here?</i>

1091
01:15:40,903 --> 01:15:42,996
<i>Right this way, gentlemen</i>

1092
01:15:50,412 --> 01:15:53,848
<i>Fellas, looks like we once
again found the Negro wing</i>

1093
01:16:01,557 --> 01:16:03,115
State seven!
State seven!

1094
01:16:04,760 --> 01:16:06,022
Set! Double tight! Double tight!

1095
01:16:06,094 --> 01:16:07,857
<i>Wing left,
watch it</i>

1096
01:16:18,874 --> 01:16:20,000
Stop!

1097
01:16:21,944 --> 01:16:24,572
Do you think it is
the New York City Ballet

1098
01:16:24,646 --> 01:16:27,046
<i>that's going to be running
up your ass on New Year's day?</i>

1099
01:16:27,115 --> 01:16:29,208
These are the goddamn
Texas Longhorns!

1100
01:16:29,284 --> 01:16:31,752
If you cannot fight off
blocks better than that,

1101
01:16:31,820 --> 01:16:34,448
<i>let's just get on the bus and go home</i>

1102
01:16:34,823 --> 01:16:36,688
Run the play again!

1103
01:16:51,506 --> 01:16:52,564
Shit!

1104
01:16:54,543 --> 01:16:56,010
My hamstring!

1105
01:16:57,112 --> 01:17:00,309
<i>This may be
a blessing in disguise</i>

1106
01:17:00,382 --> 01:17:01,576
<i>Look at these</i>

1107
01:17:10,325 --> 01:17:11,383
Where did you get these?

1108
01:17:11,460 --> 01:17:12,552
Where did I get them?

1109
01:17:12,628 --> 01:17:15,597
<i>They were sent to the hotel to your boys</i>

1110
01:17:16,798 --> 01:17:18,265
<i>Scare tactics</i>

1111
01:17:18,333 --> 01:17:20,563
<i>Doesn't have a goddamn
thing to do with football</i>

1112
01:17:20,636 --> 01:17:22,729
<i>We shouldn't play him</i>

1113
01:17:22,838 --> 01:17:25,398
<i>Maybe not even Art or Jack
but especially Ernie</i>

1114
01:17:25,474 --> 01:17:26,805
<i>The NCAA is on my back</i>

1115
01:17:26,875 --> 01:17:30,504
<i>Even the Mayor of Dallas is
nervous, afraid of race riots</i>

1116
01:17:32,247 --> 01:17:34,977
<i>Lew, you hired me to win</i>

1117
01:17:35,584 --> 01:17:37,848
<i>Well, I'm here at
the goddamn Cotton Bowl,</i>

1118
01:17:37,919 --> 01:17:40,046
<i>and this time
we're gonna win it</i>

1119
01:17:40,122 --> 01:17:42,056
<i>So why don't you tell that
to the Mayor of Dallas?</i>

1120
01:17:42,124 --> 01:17:45,457
<i>I'm playing You hear me? I'm playing</i>

1121
01:17:46,161 --> 01:17:48,391
<i>You're goddamn right you are</i>

1122
01:17:55,003 --> 01:17:58,598
<i>There's an electricity
in the air today in Dallas</i>

1123
01:17:58,674 --> 01:18:00,801
And, as you can see from
the clear skies behind me,

1124
01:18:00,876 --> 01:18:02,867
<i>it's not
a local thunderstorm</i>

1125
01:18:02,944 --> 01:18:06,311
All eyes are on the field
as undefeated Syracuse,

1126
01:18:06,381 --> 01:18:07,973
the Beast from the East,

1127
01:18:08,050 --> 01:18:11,042
<i>takes on Texas, the power
of the Southwest Conference</i>

1128
01:18:18,060 --> 01:18:20,153
Do I need to say anything?

1129
01:18:20,529 --> 01:18:22,497
<i>WILL: Come on, it's on!</i>

1130
01:18:22,564 --> 01:18:24,691
<i>Come on, it's on, the

<i>Get two ice teas,

<i>Drop your heads</i>

<i>George,

<i>I've seen him</i>

1142
01:18:54,763 --> 01:18:55,787
Really?

1143
01:18:56,098 --> 01:18:58,089
In a Redskins uniform?

1144
01:18:58,333 --> 01:19:01,427
<i>I think he'd look better
in a Cleveland uniform</i>

1145
01:19:03,105 --> 01:19:05,266
<i>Now, wouldn't that
be something?</i>

1146
01:19:05,340 --> 01:19:08,332
<i>Ladies and gentlemen, please

<i>The give
is to Ernie Davis</i>

1177
01:21:11,933 --> 01:21:15,596
<i>He gains two yards and is brought
down quickly by Taylor and Logan</i>

1178
01:21:15,670 --> 01:21:17,399
<i>We're in the Cotton Bowl,
not the cotton patch, boys</i>

1179
01:21:17,472 --> 01:21:19,064
Personal foul, ref!
84!

1180
01:21:19,140 --> 01:21:20,368
<i>84, ref</i>

1181
01:21:20,442 --> 01:21:22,103
<i>The handkerchief
on the field</i>

1182
01:21:22,177 --> 01:21:26,079
<i>There appears to be some late
contact by both Taylor and Logan</i>

Holding, offense!

1184
01:21:30,018 --> 01:21:31,781
<i>That's bullshit
Will!</i>

1185
01:21:31,853 --> 01:21:33,320
<i>But there, did you see that? I saw it</i>

1186
01:21:33,889 --> 01:21:35,652
<i>You don't stop this quick,
it's gonna get out of hand</i>

1187
01:21:35,724 --> 01:21:37,817
<i>That's one
You've been warned</i>

1188
01:21:37,893 --> 01:21:40,327
<i>"I've been warned " What are
you, my first grade teacher?</i>

1189
01:21:40,395 --> 01:21:44,297
<i>Sophomore Davis is clearly
favoring his right leg</i>

1190
01:21:44,366 --> 01:21:46,266
<i>as he moves back to
the Orangemen huddle</i>

1191
01:21:46,334 --> 01:21:48,461
<i>Okay, on one,
on one Ready?</i>

1192
01:21:50,038 --> 01:21:53,007
<i>The Orangemen
facing first and 20</i>

1193
01:21:53,074 --> 01:21:54,405
<i>It's to Davis</i>

1194
01:21:54,776 --> 01:21:57,142
<i>Runs to his left
Looks to throw</i>

1195
01:21:57,212 --> 01:21:58,770
<i>Now cuts back to the right</i>

1196
01:21:58,847 --> 01:22:01,873
<i>with a dazzling spin move,
and sheds the tackler</i>

1197
01:22:09,024 --> 01:22:12,755
<i>He turns the corner He's
in the clear He's gone!</i>

1198
01:22:12,827 --> 01:22:16,524
<i>Quick Go! Go! Go! Go!</i>

1199
01:22:17,933 --> 01:22:19,059
Go!

1200
01:22:26,808 --> 01:22:30,005
<i>He's drilled out of
bounds at the 3-yard line</i>

1201
01:22:30,512 --> 01:22:34,039
<i>And now Davis, who's lying
prone on the sidelines,</i>

1202
01:22:34,115 --> 01:22:37,642
<i>appears to be
either exhausted or hurt</i>

1203
01:22:40,588 --> 01:22:42,852
<i>I can't believe
they caught him</i>

1204
01:22:42,924 --> 01:22:44,482
Ernie, get up!

1205
01:22:45,927 --> 01:22:48,452
Ernie! Ernie!

1206
01:22:48,530 --> 01:22:50,964
Ernie, you all right?

1207
01:22:51,032 --> 01:22:53,262
<i>Davis is finally
helped to his feet</i>

1208
01:22:53,335 --> 01:22:56,168
<i>by AII-American
tackler Jack Buckley</i>

1209
01:22:56,237 --> 01:22:58,000
<i>One has to wonder</i>

1210
01:22:58,073 --> 01:23:00,735
<i>just what kind of shape
Ernie Davis is in I told you</i>

1211
01:23:03,345 --> 01:23:06,781
<i>Syracuse, first down
at the Longhorn three</i>

1212
01:23:06,848 --> 01:23:10,181
<i>The give is to the right
halfback, Gerhard Schwedes</i>

1213
01:23:10,251 --> 01:23:12,378
<i>Outstanding block by Davis</i>

1214
01:23:12,454 --> 01:23:16,288
<i>He crosses the goaI line
to put Syracuse on the board</i>

1215
01:23:17,292 --> 01:23:18,782
<i>Here in the second quarter</i>

1216
01:23:18,860 --> 01:23:22,352
Coach Ben Schwartzwalder and his
top-ranked team find themselves

1217
01:23:22,430 --> 01:23:25,365
<i>on top of
the Texas Longhorns, 7-0</i>

1218
01:23:25,433 --> 01:23:26,457
Ready?
Break!

1219
01:23:26,534 --> 01:23:28,365
<i>The Orangemen are knocking
on the door once again</i>

1220
01:23:28,436 --> 01:23:30,631
State seven!
State seven!

1221
01:23:30,705 --> 01:23:32,696
<i>Set! Hut one</i>

1222
01:23:34,642 --> 01:23:38,976
<i>The give is to Ernie Davis and
the sophomore finds the end zone,</i>

1223
01:23:39,047 --> 01:23:42,881
<i>as the Orangemen increase
their lead on the Longhorns!</i>

1224
01:23:43,118 --> 01:23:44,176
<i>So precisely when is it
you're going to</i>

1225
01:23:44,252 --> 01:23:46,186
start kicking my
black ass back to Africa?

1226
01:23:49,357 --> 01:23:50,415
Hey, Buckley!

1227
01:23:50,492 --> 01:23:51,516
<i>Hey, come on, stay cool</i>

1228
01:23:51,593 --> 01:23:53,561
<i>They're baiting us
They're baiting them</i>

1229
01:23:53,628 --> 01:23:56,756
<i>Hey, Logan, Taylor,
44 is embarrassing you</i>

1230
01:23:57,499 --> 01:24:00,195
And after a successful
two-point conversion

1231
01:24:00,268 --> 01:24:04,102
the Orangemen of Syracuse
lead the Longhorns of Texas

1232
01:24:04,172 --> 01:24:06,197
<i>by a score of 15-0</i>

1233

<i>McKinley on
a sweep to the right</i>

01:24:11,846 --> 01:24:15,873
<i>Bobby Lundy steps up and
there's a huge hit on McKinley</i>

1235
01:24:15,950 --> 01:24:18,851
<i>And the ball is loose,
recovered by the Orangemen</i>

1236
01:24:18,920 --> 01:24:20,888
<i>and Syracuse takes over</i>

1237
01:24:20,955 --> 01:24:22,081
<i>ERNIE: Yeah</i>

1238
01:24:25,760 --> 01:24:27,591
<i>My,
that's a cheap shot</i>

1239
01:24:27,662 --> 01:24:30,563
<i>A late hit by Talbert
on Ernie Davis</i>

1240
01:24:30,632 --> 01:24:32,691
<i>after the play
was whistled dead</i>

1241
01:24:32,767 --> 01:24:36,168
Back! Everybody,
back! Back! Back! Back!

1242
01:24:36,237 --> 01:24:38,102
You all right, son?
You okay?

1243
01:24:38,173 --> 01:24:39,231
<i>I'm all right, Coach</i>

1244
01:24:39,307 --> 01:24:41,002
<i>All right You sure?
Yeah</i>

1245
01:24:41,076 --> 01:24:43,408
<i>Offense on the field
Let's go!</i>

1246
01:24:46,881 --> 01:24:49,543
<i>Told you this would get
out of hand This is bullshit</i>

1247
01:24:49,617 --> 01:24:53,075
<i>Syracuse will run one
last play before halftime</i>

1248
01:24:53,788 --> 01:24:54,982
<i>Pack your bags, spook</i>

<i>Come on,

01:24:57,826 --> 01:24:59,088
You defending this nigger?

1252
01:24:59,160 --> 01:25:01,060

a white Christian?

1253

<i>I'm Jewish</i>

1254
01:25:03,231 --> 01:25:04,459
Hut one!

1255
01:25:15,410 --> 01:25:17,105
<i>That's another late hit</i>

1256
01:25:17,178 --> 01:25:20,511
<i>And once again,
Ernie Davis is pummeled!</i>

1257
01:25:21,749 --> 01:25:23,774
Break it up, ref!

1258
01:25:28,189 --> 01:25:30,282
<i>Come on, ref,
do something</i>

1259
01:25:37,565 --> 01:25:39,965
<i>And both teams
are clearing their benches</i>

1260
01:25:40,034 --> 01:25:41,763
<i>and heading to
the middle of the field</i>

1261
01:25:41,836 --> 01:25:43,269
<i>Ref, I told you to
do something about this</i>

1262

This</i>

1264
01:25:52,814 --> 01:25:55,112
<i>This is no longer a football

1265

01:26:01,656 --> 01:26:03,021
<i>ugly display</i>

1267
01:26:03,591 --> 01:26:06,219
Get off! Get off the field!

1268

Hey, Coach!

1269
01:26:09,430 --> 01:26:10,954
Get off of him!
Break it up!

1270
01:26:11,032 --> 01:26:12,829
Petey, you all right?

1271
01:26:38,526 --> 01:26:39,550
You guys see
what happened?

1272
01:26:39,627 --> 01:26:40,992
<i>Come on,
cozy up to the blackboard</i>

1273
01:26:41,062 --> 01:26:42,996
<i>You see what happened, Lundy?
That's what I'm telling you</i>

1274
01:26:43,064 --> 01:26:44,531
<i>You can't let people
talk to you like this,</i>

1275

<i>be pounding on your leg
the whole time</i>

1276
01:26:46,134 --> 01:26:48,967
<i>ERNIE: I know, but you'll
get ejected They won't</i>

1277
01:26:51,139 --> 01:26:52,902

1278
01:26:52,974 --> 01:26:54,874
<i>We're up by 15
We can take it from here</i>

1279
01:26:54,943 --> 01:26:56,308
<i>Coach, I can still get
back out there and play</i>

1280
01:26:56,377 --> 01:26:59,312
<i>No, I want you to
put some ice on that leg</i>

1281
01:27:07,855 --> 01:27:10,722
<i>I had a halftime speech
all planned out</i>

1282
01:27:12,427 --> 01:27:15,760
<i>It seemed pretty good
up till about 10 minutes ago</i>

1283
01:27:16,130 --> 01:27:19,463
<i>It was all about victory
and champions and glory</i>

1284
01:27:24,005 --> 01:27:26,530
<i>But this is not
just a game anymore</i>

1285
01:27:28,142 --> 01:27:31,475
<i>We're fighting something else
out on that field right now</i>

1286
01:27:32,513 --> 01:27:35,038
<i>And I can see it
just as clearly as you</i>

1287
01:27:38,419 --> 01:27:40,353
<i>And that's why
winning this one</i>

1288
01:27:40,421 --> 01:27:43,481
<i>means nothing
if you lose yourselves</i>

1289
01:27:46,127 --> 01:27:48,118
<i>Don't give this one away</i>

1290
01:27:48,763 --> 01:27:51,823
<i>Keep it Hold on to it
for yourselves</i>

1291
01:27:51,899 --> 01:27:53,799
<i>and for everyone
in this room</i>

1292
01:27:54,969 --> 01:27:57,369
<i>It's here It's right here</i>

01:27:57,438 --> 01:28:00,100
<i>And no one can
take it from you, gentlemen</i>

1294
01:28:00,174 --> 01:28:02,233
Not the officials,
not the crowds

1295
01:28:02,310 --> 01:28:04,335
<i>and certainly
not the other team</i>

1296

<i>It belongs to you, gentlemen</i>

1297

<i>Down 15 to nothing,

<i>Bobby Lackey

<i>for a 69-yard
Texas touchdown!</i>

1307

<i>What a throw by the Heisman-hopefuI
quarterback from Texas</i>

<i>That'll mean
something later on</i>

1313

<i>Midway
through the third quarter,</i>

<i>All right! Let's go!</i>

1320
01:29:30,698 --> 01:29:32,689
Protect the ball!

1321
01:29:36,971 --> 01:29:41,533
<i>And watch out! The Longhorns

<i>Bobby Lackey calls his own

What the hell did you
say to Floyd Little?

1664
01:58:06,546 --> 01:58:08,036
Why? What happened?

1665
01:58:08,114 --> 01:58:11,015
<i>Well, I'll be damned,
he backed out on Notre Dame</i>

1666

<i>He's coming to Syracuse</i>

1667
01:58:14,420 --> 01:58:17,912
<i>Well, let's see I told him

01:58:53,092 --> 01:58:56,027
<i>because there won't
be another Ernie Davis</i>

1678
01:59:12,845 --> 01:59:17,179
Can you believe they suited me up
to run on the field and take a bow?

1679
01:59:19,118 --> 01:59:20,312
<i>I'll be right
here with you, son</i>

1680
01:59:20,386 --> 01:59:21,546
<i>Please
welcome to the field,</i>

1681
01:59:21,621 --> 01:59:27,287
<i>number 45, from Syracuse
at halfback, Ernie Davis</i>

1682
01:59:36,002 --> 01:59:39,233
<i>Mr Martin, in the end it
turns out you did me a favor</i>

1683
01:59:39,305 --> 01:59:42,240
<i>when you asked me to
write this for The Post</i>

1684
01:59:45,845 --> 01:59:48,507
<i>You see, yesterday
was my 23rd birthday,</i>

1685
01:59:48,581 --> 01:59:53,348
<i>and compared to some, that doesn't seem
like a whole lot of life to talk about</i>

1686
01:59:59,058 --> 02:00:03,324
<i>Thing is, I don't know how
much more is in front of me</i>

1687
02:00:03,396 --> 02:00:07,389
<i>And as you see from the number
of pages, if you've read this far,</i>

1688
02:00:07,466 --> 02:00:11,926
<i>I did have a few things to say,
and I'm not sure how to end this</i>

1689
02:00:12,004 --> 02:00:13,938
<i>or even if I want to</i>

1690
02:00:15,174 --> 02:00:19,270
<i>It's funny Most people think my
life has been all about football</i>

1691
02:00:20,746 --> 02:00:23,010
<i>I've even thought
that myself</i>

1692
02:00:23,716 --> 02:00:25,843
<i>But football is just a game</i>

1693
02:00:26,752 --> 02:00:29,186
<i>What matters is
what you play for</i>

1694
02:00:36,796 --> 02:00:40,994
<i>Sometimes, when the game is close
and everything is on the line,</i>

1695
02:00:41,067 --> 02:00:44,127
<i>that's when you forget
the crowd and the noise</i>

1696
02:00:45,805 --> 02:00:50,504
<i>That's when it's just you against
somebody else to see who is the better man</i>

1697
02:00:51,577 --> 02:00:54,011
<i>That's what I like about the game</i>

1698
02:00:54,647 --> 02:00:57,741
<i>Because at that
moment you are friends</i>

1699
02:00:59,485 --> 02:01:01,214
<i>and you are enemies</i>

1700
02:01:04,023 --> 02:01:05,820
<i>and you are brothers</i>
