(S01E03) They kind of telegraphed that the team was going to lose, but I think the show needed it to happen to really get into just what a crazy town Dillon is. It was a really good opening to the episode. The way the game footage was cut in with Coach Taylor in the locker room was very good. I was glad that they didn't just go with Saracen costing the Panthers the game. It would have been too much after he won the big game last time. Plus, having Saracen performing well sets us up for what promises to be an interesting quarterback battle.Yeah, how about Voodoo Tatum? Didn't see that one coming. It's an interesting angle grounded in some realism. For those that don't know, recruiting for high school sports is a real thing, and not just for football. There was recently a story here about a girls basketball team that was forced to forfeit all of their games from 2002 to 2006 because of it.
