Guys who actually played the game tend to go with Titans or FNL.

I played/started OLB on a state championship team in HS, and I picked Rudy. However, Rudy, FNL, and RtT were like 1a, 1b, and 1c for me.

It will be back for another season. FNL actually airs new episodes on Direct TV's network, then replays them on NBC the next season. They did a one season trial with this a year ago and it was popular enough that they picked it up for two more seasons. This was the first of those two seasons so there's at least one more season coming.

Voted Rudy, but Brian's Song and Remember the Titans were are very close second! All the Right Moves is another good one.
