Necessary Roughness

A Texas university is forced to assemble a football team out of a rag-tag bunch of losers and misfits after the original team is banned from playing. Despite humiliating defeats in their first eight games, these no-hopers get it together after a bar-room brawl with their arch-enemies, the Colts, gives them the determination they lacked. Starring Scott Bakula (of television's `Quantum Leap'), Hector Elizondo and Sinbad.
