This spoof on sports movies features David Koechner as Lambeau "Coach" Fields, the worst coach in history, who tries to change his luck when he takes on the job of coaching the hapless Heartland State University's Comebacks. He spends the season trying to shape a squad of losers into a winning team by teaching them to act like REAL players: failing classes, getting involved in sexual harassment suits, and drinking to excess. Now comes the big moment when they enter the second annual Toilet Bowl and compete against Field's old assistant coach Freddie Wiseman (Carl Weathers).
