- Did the Coyotes cover the spread in the final game: they won 20 to 17 as roughly three-point underdogs with Mox, so they covered, with one host calling it 'a Nicole situation' (as transcribed); they were at home and had put up 66 the game before.
- The closing credits have Mox stating that Coach Kilmer never coached again; one host does not believe a player mutiny would stop him getting another job, though being outed as a white supremacist or winning only two titles in thirty years might, and in 1999 without the internet he could go two towns over with no assistants to spread the tale.
- Asked, as the panelist who wrote a book about music, whether any movie has used Van Halen's Hot for Teacher better, answers that the book was about music, not stripper teachers, that this might have been the only Hot for Teacher, and guesses no. — Shea Serrano
- Did Friday Night Lights rip off Varsity Blues or vice versa: vice versa, since the makers wanted to film the Friday Night Lights book, could apparently not get the rights, stole the good parts and made up weird ones; one host would pay to see that movie every year.
- Why isn't Varsity Blues 2 in the works: several people have died, which becomes the pitch, with Lance Harbor having coached for twenty years and dying, Mox returning from Brown, where he is a professor, for the funeral as West Cannon is about to abolish football, a football Footloose, or alternatively Mox as a software salesman in Denver; the hosts are in on Netflix.
