AllMovie review.
- For the first time since 1909, the football teams of Harvard and Yale were each undefeated with 6-0 records in their conference (8-0 overall) when they met for their season's final game on November 23, 1968.
- The Harvard team included actor Tommy Lee Jones (who reminisces about his roommate Al Gore in the film), while Yale's star quarterback Brian Dowling became the inspiration for B.D., the jock character in Garry Trudeau's Doonsbury comic strip.
- Ted Livingston recalls stories about his roommate, George W. Bush, as a Yale cheerleader being detained by Police for helping tear down the goal posts that season after the game at Princeton.
- Yale Fullback Bobby Levin reminisces about his campus Vietnam War protests with girlfriend Meryl Streep.
- Yale featured All-American and future NFL Hall of Famer Calvin Hill
