It's simply a great movie. It's inspiring and moving, and anyone that has seen it will agree. If you haven't seen it, Rudy is about a kid that has always wanted to play at Notre Dame, but his family and friends always said he was too small and not good enough. Rudy works hard and raises money to get into Notre Dame, and eventually gets in the game for 30 seconds, after the crowd starts a chant to put him in, and his teamates like him so much he is carried off the field. It is simply a classic.


Yes, Rudy is a very good football movie and ranks among the best of all time, but what about Remember the Titans??? This team overcomes racial discrimination to unite and become an amazing team. The Longest Yard 91974, The Longest Yard Remake, Friday Night Lights, Jerry Macguire, Invincible, Wildcats, WE ARE MARSHALL, Radio,


You may want to re-look at the throwdown topic. It is college football, so that excludes most of your examples. Rudy is just the best college football movie, hands down.



Great argument...but I still am thinkin Rudy is better than your blank space.

Remember the Titans was based on high school football! The Longest Yard was based on convicts vs guards! Jerry Maguire was based on pro football! Invincible was based on pro football!! Radio was based on high school football! DEE DEE DEE! The throwdown was about best college football movie!

Key word is college football movie. That excludes Remeber the Titans, Radio, and Friday Night Lights (high school) and Longest Yard, Jerry Maguire, Invincible (pro football)

Hmm, hard to contest when there weren't a lot of college football movies. None that actually come to mind off the top of my head.

"The Program" is criminally underrated.

"The Program" was an excellent movie. But, for feel good, rooting for the underdog, cheering, heartwarming excitement...Rudy has it.

It's between "Rudy" and "The Program". I'm a sucker for the underdog, so..."Rudy! Rudy! Rudy!"
