Robin Williams plays Jack Dundee, who dropped a perfectly thrown pass in the final seconds of the 1972 high school football game between Taft and their nemesis, Bakersfield.
Thirteen years later, Jack coerces Reno (Kurt Russell), star quarterback of the fateful game into helping him replay the game. He convinces supporters in both towns to re-stage the game and in the process revitalizes Taft, as well as his and Reno’s marriages. The game is replayed and at the critical moment Reno throws another perfect forward pass to Jack. He catches it, and Taft defeats Bakersfield.
