About

A small, turbulent town in Texas obsesses over their high school football team to an unhealthy degree. When the star tailback, Boobie Miles, is seriously injured during the first game of the season, all hope is lost, and the town's dormant social problems begin to flare up. It is left to the inspiring abilities of new coach Gary Gaines to instill in the other team members -- and, by proxy, the town itself -- a sense of self-respect and honor.
Coach Eric Taylor inherits a fractured community where the Friday night lights provide the only distraction from systemic decay. As a star player's injury shatters local illusions, the pressure to win clashes violently with the harsh realities of small-town life.
