Plot: Takes a look back at the scandal that rocked college football in the mid 80's. Southern Methodist University, the most talented team in the country, was caught paying players and suffered the so-called "death penalty." A great film that takes a look at that scandal and shows just how little the college football world has learned in the two decades since. -- Gabe

Fascinating look into the SMU program and the rampant recruiting violations that dominated the SWC conference in the 80s. The SMU "death penalty" was so devastating, it literally took 20 years for them to return to any semblance of their former glory. Lesson learned.

A great documentary about the 1980's scandal at SMU and the SWC as a whole. For those of us that love college football, a must see.
