* DidntThinkThisThrough: Mr. Kaplan introduces only ''nine'' players for the football team and thinks he's announced everyone. While eight-man football does exist in California, it's only played by very small schools. Based on Angel Grove High School's size, the amount of buildings in the town and the fact that it has its own television news station, it's highly improbable that Angel Grove High School would play eight-man football. Even if it did, an eight-man team would have a lot more than nine players.

* YouAreBetterThanYouThinkYouAre: Jason and later Ernie assure a doubting Tommy that he can make the football team if he just applies himself. Of course, given that only 11 players are announced for the team, it appears all Tommy had to do was [[WinsByDoingAbsolutelyNothing show up]] to make the team.

* HiddenDepths: Ernie reveals he was an all-star fallback in college and agrees to help train Tommy.
* {{Irony}}: Tommy notes that, for once, even Bulk is more experienced at a sport than he is.
