[Denny] Previously on God. Family. Football.
I'm personally getting sick and tired of losing.
-These kids get heartsick. -Yeah.
[Denny] He's in a lot of pain.
These kidney stones are ruthless.
Jacob's definitely the key piece of our whole offensive line.
Without him, they all crumble.
[Haden] Coach Palmer, he's different from any other line coach.
May think he's a little crazy.
Hey, your dad just text me. He's coming to the game this weekend.
[Peyton] My dad's one of the top three to ever play at Evangel,
but I wanna be better than him in every aspect, and especially football.
[Denny] Hurry up!
Hurry up! Let's go!
[Peyton] Let's go! Let's go! Ready, ready.
Down.
-Let's go! -[radio host] Peyton drops back.
-He's looking. -[Denny] Throw it!
[radio host] He gets sacked.
Peyton is still down.
He's making his way to the sidelines.
Pretty shook up from that crushing blow.
But that forces the Eagles to punt.
[whistle blows]
And it's over.
The coaches and players can take pride from this game,
but not a victory.
They played them tough, but in the end, Westgate was just too strong.
Listen to me. Come on in here.
-Hey, bring it in. Let's go. -[man] Tight. Let's go.
Tight, tight, tight, tight.
[Denny] I just want y'all to feel this for a second.
I want you to feel almost. This is what almost feels like.
[sniffles]
We're that far off.
We're gonna look at the film,
but we're not gonna mourn over it.
-[player 1] Yes, sir. -[player 2] Yes, sir.
We're just gonna fix it.
Do you ever wanna feel this feeling again?
[players] No, sir.
Then let's go to work.
[players] Yes, sir.
[Fabian] Hey, toughness on three. One, two, three.
[players] Toughness.
[radio host] I tell you, a lot of milling around on the field right now.
How will the team regroup after this gut-wrencher?
I need you on me.
But right now, I'm thinking, "Man, it's gonna be tough moving forward."
Gonna be tough.
I mean, it's a pivotal moment.
Being one and two, this dictates where we go for the rest of the season.
After we lose those kind of games, it's hard for me kind of to get over.
That lump just gets up in your gut. It's like you wanna throw up.
During the game, I felt like we were fighting each other.
But we need to all come together.
Because whenever we all come together and we all form as one thing,
ain't nobody can break that.
You know, every little thing matters... in a big game like that...
every little thing matters.
This guy right here...
you were running around getting hammered...
[Parker] You see Mom anywhere?
I'm proud of you, baby.
I'm here to be part of the team, you know, in terms of the kids.
Will you send me that?
I wanna be an amazing dad, but it's hard from a distance.
[Sara] Are you okay?
Yeah, I'll be fine. I'm just dizzy.
[Sara] Okay.
After the game was over, Peyton, he just was a little off.
I have no problem with my kids playing football.
That doesn't mean I like to see 'em get hurt.
So...
[radio host] Hello, Eagles fans.
That heartbreaking loss against Westgate drops the team to one and two.
We're all praying Evangel starts to put some wins together.
But we'll have to do it without a home field
because we're playing all our home games
over in Bossier City until the new turf is installed.
And speaking of Bossier,
that's our next opponent, the Bossier Bearkats.
[school bell rings]
Okay, so 8.9 grams per centimeters cubed.
My bell's been rung before, but I knew this was a little bit different
because it usually goes away by Sunday.
But when Monday came, being at school just really hurting me.
A cube of gold this size weighs 19 grams.
It'd take me like five to ten seconds to process anything anybody says to me.
If I have a cube of hydrogen gas in there, it's .084 grams.
Okay?
The whole time at school, I've just been sitting
thinking, like, "What If I have a concussion
and I just don't get to play?"
Like, this is terrible because I really, really wanna play.
See the difference?
Uh-huh. Yeah.
-What?! -Oh!
-No! -Oh!
[Gabe] Pick, give me that.
Ooh, you threw the game away.
-You said I threw the game away? -You threw the game away.
Look where you at.
Fourth and 15, you're not scoring, bro.
I'm Dayday Drake, number six, linebacker/running back.
I'm a freshman and I'm originally from Kentucky,
but after my father went to prison, we moved out here to Shreveport
because my grandmother had cancer and we came down here to take care of her.
Switching from public to private was crazy.
When I first came up, it was crazy.
Like, people was acting, like, way different than what I was used to.
I never really, like, learned about God, like, as much as I really should
until I came here, though.
It's just a switch.
You know how you had told me I'm a hothead.
[laughs]
But I don't get that. Like, what do you mean by that?
Like, short temper-type stuff?
I was tripping, ain't gonna lie.
You do be...
You do be getting in your little... your little times when you get mad.
And I be watching. I'm telling you, I watch everything.
-You say you hold on every play? -Yes.
That's not a good look for us, man.
Look at the score, Triston.
We got something to prove
and we are not gonna do it if you're gonna keep doing this.
You can't talk back, nothing like that.
'Cause that's how I was. I used to do that.
And I've seen that in you.
You shouldn't be doing it.
-Yeah. -That's what I'm saying
so you won't make the same mistakes.
You know?
[Damari] Gabe, I would say he's like a big brother to me.
We talk about football.
We talk about everything.
He helps me overcome things.
I really appreciate him for doing that, though.
You need to start your recruitment all early too, though.
If you wanna be smart.
When I get to the NFL, it'll make my life way better for me,
honestly, because I'm working a job right now
and I'm getting paid nine an hour.
I just got paid $98 for working 24 hours.
Crazy.
The chances are very slim that you actually go to the NFL,
but I feel like God has chosen me
as one of those few people to actually make it.
We gonna see. We gonna see.
Oh! Touchdown.
-Talk to me! Talk to me! -[laughs]
You stop playing with me, boy.
I'm not playing with you, boy.
-Man, it's beautiful out here, isn't it? -Always is.
[players chanting and clapping]
I don't want Peyton playing if he has a concussion
because you don't mess with the head.
You don't mess with the brain.
'Cause a lot of moms and dads are scared to death right now,
and I would be too.
We wanna make sure he's okay,
so he's gonna have to see the team doctor after practice
so that we can know for sure.
That's the team rule.
-[Peyton] Ready up. -Peyton.
The thing is, if you've got a... if you've got a concussion,
I don't want you to play.
[Peyton] Yes, sir.
[Fabian] Hurry, Hurry!
-[Kramer] Good ball, Ro. -[Denny] Wow.
[Kramer] That's a great ball.
Hey, Coach, if, God forbid,
Peyton had to come out, I gotta know
because I gotta get Ro ready, okay?
Yeah.
[Ro] Ready, ready.
[Denny] All right, let's go.
My name is Rodrigo Ballesteros.
I'm number 18 and I play QB and wide receiver.
[Denny] He knew.
You know, he's been playing quarterback in Cancun
I guess his whole life.
He said he's been playing for like 11 years or something.
I love him.
I always wanted to play football in the USA.
I guess I've been playing football almost 12 years.
Well, I found Evangel through a program called Educatius,
and my mom loved that it was a Christian school.
I've played QB most of my life.
When I came to Evangel, I thought I would have a better shot
at playing as a wide receiver, not a QB.
But I was hanging out with Peyton and I showed my Instagram
and I had some highlights.
And Peyton told Coach Denny that I was a QB.
And they just put me out of QB.
What are you confident throwing?
I can throw whatever pass.
I'm comfortable with everything.
You're comfortable with all of that?
Yeah, yeah. I've thrown that play.
My family in Mexico not being here, it's kind of tough.
But my host family living in America
have been great to me.
And I love Coach Denny. He's a father figure to all of the team.
-[whistle blows] -[Denny] Nice shot.
And he believes in us every time we step onto the field.
And he means a lot to me.
I'm like a dink and dunk quarterback... to be honest.
-Okay. -I was a dink and dunk quarterback.
We can do dink and dunk, right?
I love dink and dunk, that was me.
Can't play this week, sadly.
I have a concussion.
And I'm upset because I wanted to play really bad.
Now it's just time to really lock in on helping Ro.
We need to work all week and watch film all week and prep for the game,
but I believe in Ro.
[Sara] As quarterback's mom, my job is head up the football moms.
And on Wednesday, we meet, we pray, and kind of bond.
We all are in this journey together, and it has been a journey.
Peyton is, and he's not happy about this, but he has had a headache
since Friday night when he hit his head on the ground.
I know these games are so important to these boys
and that's what they live for right now, you know.
I mean, they love doing it, and they work so, so hard.
But at the same time, if they evaluate you and you're not fine, you don't play.
I'm sorry.
Do we have any prayer request or anything going on this week
we need to know about or...?
At 1:00 AM, Jacob woke up in excruciating pain,
doubled over, could hardly walk, and I'm just grabbing his abdomen.
So I'm like, "Let's go to the ER, bud."
And sure enough, it's a kidney stone,
which he had back in August.
He's got a six-millimeter stone that's blocking the kidney,
and the kidney had backed up so bad.
That's what was causing most of his pain.
So I need specific prayer for that stone to move right out.
As soon as it's done, they can take it out.
And he's gonna be better than he was before.
[all] Yes.
All right, y'all wanna gather around the E and...
Miss Kim, will you please start us off?
Lord, we thank you for new beginnings.
Lord, we pray over the women that are in this circle right now, Lord.
Lord, the mothers, grandmothers, aunts, sisters, guardians.
Lord, we pray that you watch over this team.
These boys are strategically placed at this moment
and this season at this time and be victorious over all things, Lord.
In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
[all] Amen.
Ro is gonna have to play.
And he's gonna go out there
with the weight of the world on his shoulders,
having had very few reps.
In all of sports, there's probably not a pressure position like quarterback.
You are carrying the team.
So here's Ro going out this Friday night, never been in that spot before.
I'm just hoping that he's gonna be able
to go out there and just have a great night.
Here's what I need you to do.
I need you to go meet with him.
-Just pull him out of class. -Okay.
In your own inimitable way,
-I want you to do what you do best. -Coach.
Tell him that he's gonna do great.
-[Fabian] Okay. -Just fill him with confidence.
I'm gonna do that.
Gotta stay positive and keep moving forward.
-Hey, Coach. -[Fabian] What's up, buddy?
-How you feeling? -I'm good.
[Fabian] I know you probably be like, "Damn, why I'm in Coach Carter's office?"
-Well... -I heard what you did, man.
What?
I'm just messing with you. [laughs]
Oh, my God.
Whoo.
Almost gave me a heart attack, Coach.
Oh, my God.
-[continues laughing] -I was just...
-I'm just playing with you, man. -[laughs]
No, man, I just wanted to check with you, man.
Well, we all got news this morning.
-Now we're calling up on number 18. -Yes, sir.
So I just wanna know how you feel. Are you ready?
Do you feel like you can go out there and do what you're supposed to do?
I mean...
I feel like I'm going to ball out...
That's what I feel.
I'm just very confident in myself.
That's all we can ask for, dawg.
I think you're gonna do good, bro, and you're the shot caller at this point.
It's your time to shine right now.
I got the news that I was gonna be the starter.
And at first, I was a little nervous.
But then I thought, "Well, Peyton's been a great, great, great friend."
I have to step up. I have to.
What's your little nickname they got going on for you around here?
The Cancun Cannon.
[both laugh]
[Ro] I like it.
-You like it? -I personally like it.
-Yeah. [laughs] -Yeah?
-Cancun Cannon. That's cool. -Exactly.
-That's cool. -Thanks, Coach.
Hey, watch out now.
-Them DBs back there now. Watch it now. -Yeah, well...
-Love you, bro. Appreciate you, man. -Love you too, Coach.
-All right, good seeing you, brother. -Thanks. Bye-bye.
All right.
Cancun Cannon.
That's clean.
[hip hop music playing]
-So how was your day? -It wasn't too bad.
I only fell asleep in class twice.
-Only twice? -Only twice.
Did you pass your test?
I did, I think.
But, Ro, he's an exchange student
that came in two months ago.
And Peyton ended up with a concussion.
-Yeah. -And so Ro is starting.
[Shannon] Is he a running or a passing quarterback?
-He's definitely a running. -Yeah?
-But he can chuck it too. -Yeah?
Where's he from?
Uh, hold on...
Starts with a C.
He's from Mexico.
-Cancun? -The Cancun Rifle.
-The Rifle? -Yeah, that's the Cancun Rifle.
Really?
Yeah.
[both laugh]
[whistle blows]
[Danny] Let's go!
Set up!
No, Toad, don't stop!
Here we go. Set up.
Good, good.
Now get out of there.
I'm Coach Palmer here at Evangel and I coach the offensive line.
And our most important job is that we protect our quarterback.
Come on, here we go, Ethan. Set up.
All right, go back and start over again.
Hey, hey, hey, hey.
Start all over again. Hit that thing in the throat.
Last game, Peyton got hit more than normal.
And then going into this game against Bossier,
we got to do a better job of getting him protection.
Set up! Move, move, move!
Toad, don't stop!
You're quitting!
Are you listening to me?
Yes, sir!
[Danny] You've got a game in about 48 hours!
Coach Palmer mentally destroys me, man.
I'll be honest, I started tearing up.
[Danny] Toad, I expect more of you.
Don't let him beat you coming off the ball!
Yes, sir!
I was fighting it. I was like, "No, if he sees this, I'm done."
[Danny] My goodness gracious alive.
Has it dawned on you yet?
You've snapped the ball over the quarterback's head
almost every snap.
Football is a game of repetition, especially the offensive line.
Repetition at practice,
repetition of your plays, repetition in a game.
Every day. Nothing changes.
Here we go. Do it again. Here we go.
Set up! Let's go again.
Ready? Break. Do it again. Set up!
Get out of there!
Set up!
Better get your head out there.
Set up!
Why would you take your time getting over there, son?
Hey, Toad, come here.
I've said it all year long!
Get over there!
Are you okay today? Are you dizzy?
Yes, sir. I'm fine.
It takes a while to make me mad 'cause I'm a chill person.
But I'll get mad, and then you push that madness...
I cry.
And I can't help it.
It's just something that's happened to me my whole life,
and I just, I'll get so irritated that I'll just get upset.
[Danny] Hey, Toad, come here.
I mean, it's just Coach Palmer.
I mean, that's just how he coaches.
He knows what he's doing. He's a role model.
And you can't do nothing about it but respect him.
When he's here...
you cut him off that way.
Don't go there.
Yes, sir!
[Denny whistles] Everybody up! Let's go!
[man] Everybody up! Everybody up!
[Denny] Jacob's back with us. Come on.
[cheering and applause]
Where is he? Where is Jake? Is he around here?
Is he over... Where is he? Where is he?
[Jacob] I'm frustrated right now.
I had my day surgery and the kidney was going through a lot.
It felt like a gun was shooting me in my side.
It brought me to my knees.
[Denny] Come on here, buddy.
It's gonna be Ro's first time starting in a varsity football game.
You know, I'd love to be out there and protect him.
But I know, as much as I wanna play,
I have to sit out this week and get myself prepared
for the next coming weeks 'cause the next coming weeks
are gonna be some very vital weeks for us.
[Denny] Man, we're so glad you're out of the hospital and God took care of you.
And I want you to pray for us right now.
-Will you? -[Jacob] Yes, sir.
Dear Heavenly Father.
Lord, thank you so much for my brothers and my family.
[all] Yes, Lord.
Lord, I ask right now, Lord, that you will just bless my brothers, Lord.
Keep them safe, Lord.
Lord, let us come back stronger.
-Amen. -[all] Amen.
-[players] Break it down! Break it down! -Let's break it down, Jake.
[Jacob] Hey, family on three. One, two, three!
[all] Family!
I have never in my life seen a grown man
who could even deal with kidney stones,
much less be the very best lineman on the field.
[Denny] You know what? If there's a tough guy award, you won it.
He's just extraordinary.
-You bet. What's up, guys? -Glad to see you, Jacob, buddy.
I could play with the stone in, but it's gonna hurt like hell.
-No, don't worry about it. -We got you, bro.
-Do not worry about it, man. -We're gonna win.
Friday night.
-[Peyton] Yeah, we gotta get rolling. -It's time. Right now.
Ro shows up and, you know, I looked at him
and I just said, "You know, he's too sweet to be a football player."
[laughs]
Now, on Friday, he rolls out there
as the starting quarterback for our team.
The Cancun Cannon.
Tell me about y'all's relationship, guys, coming up to the game.
And I felt like you were almost a personal coach for him.
He was.
[Denny] Peyton is a consummate leader.
That kid could bring me to tears
just thinking about the depth of his character.
I tried to help him as much as I could.
Obviously, he already has all the basics he needs.
He's a baller anyways.
But any little tweaks that, I mean, you would ever tell me,
I just tried to tell him.
Everything we do at Evangel with quarterbacks,
it's worked for so long that we do it the same exact way
that we did it when even my dad played.
Pastor Denny likes you to just keep your foot planted
and you just do like a pivot drop and you just rotate.
You do his stuff his way and it works.
But I've been doing it for five years now.
Ro coming in and having to learn it in a short amount of time,
it's a lot harder to get used to it, so I kind of took him under my wing.
Once you get in the game,
if you see that they're giving you something over and over again,
but you're not taking advantage of it, then you've gotta make an adjustment.
I definitely learned a couple things here.
The footwork they have,
where to point the ball in a short amount of space,
you know, I've learned that from Peyton and Coach Denny.
But your scrambling ability is just, it's uncanny.
But, like, I think I'm a little bit of a natural in that aspect.
Back in Mexico, I used to live in a place called Puerto Aventuras.
That means "adventure port."
It's so beautiful.
But, like, my dad and my mom, they were, like, scrap poor.
And my mom was selling tamales in the street.
His mom and dad were married,
but in order, like, to have enough money to support them,
his mom lived in South Mexico and his dad lived in North Mexico
and never saw each other.
I'm so grateful to have my dad and my mom,
and they worked so hard to get me here, and it's just amazing.
I'm so, I'm so thankful and grateful.
Having the opportunity to play varsity
in one of the best states to play football in,
it's... incredible.
As a foreign exchange student to Evangel Christian Academy,
but he is gonna have an experience like no other, right?
Yes, sir.
-Dreams come true, huh? -[Ro] Oh, man, a hundred percent.
Amen.
[Ro's mother speaking Spanish]
[Ro speaking Spanish] Hi, Mom. How are you?
Hey, sweetie. Everything's all right, and you?
I have news for you.
Let me hear it.
Well, Peyton got injured.
Yeah, he got a concussion, so...
I'm going to be the starter.
[Ro's mother screams] No!
[speaking Spanish]
Wow! Really? I'm so sorry for your friend but I'm so happy for you.
Love you, Ma.
You deserve it, sweetie. I love you with all my heart.
Love you, Ma.
[radio host] Hello, Shreveport.
It's game day and the Eagles are battling the Bossier Bearkats,
with their backup quarterback leading the team.
In one of the biggest settings in high school football,
the Eagles are relying on Ro's arm, and heart,
to lead them to victory.
To go down one and three would be disastrous.
The first day practice, Coach Denny told everyone I was from Cancun,
and they just received me with an applause.
I mean, I love my teammates.
Every single one of them.
I love the culture we got here.
I bought into it.
So we're gonna win.
I have to do it.
God, I ask you, you bless this hand and light him up on fire.
God, I know he's gonna be on fire.
I was praying for Ro and I kept seeing this vision of, like, his hand on fire.
And I was like, "I see four touchdowns,
and I believe two of them are gonna be to Parker."
Let's score the first drive, God,
and let's score four drives after that, Father.
And, you know, he's new to Evangel
and new to prophecy and all that kind of stuff.
But, you know, at Evangel, you believe in stuff like that.
I ask you take any nerves away, God, because he's built for this moment.
He's just not quitting.
This is our only backup we have, bro. Let's go.
Let's go, baby.
[Denny] I declare that tonight is going to be a turnaround game for you.
[players chant]
[Denny] I declare that tonight you're gonna walk off of this field
with a feeling that you have rarely had in the last three years.
[players chant]
I declare that even though we have lost our quarterback,
that we will go into battle behind the Cancun Cannon!
[players chant]
[Denny] And I declare that it starts now!
[players chant]
[whistle blows]
[hip hop music playing]
It's almost mandatory that we get this win for our record.
It will level us back out, be two and two.
But Jacob's out this week, Peyton's out this week,
and it puts a lot of pressure on the linemen that we have
to make sure Ro doesn't get hurt.
I gotta protect my side and make sure nothing comes through.
[radio host] Let's see what the Cancun Cannon can do
as Evangel starts with the ball.
I hope I'm coaching Evangel one day.
You are going to.
[whistle blows]
Ready, ready.
Down.
Let's go!
[radio host] A quick handoff for a small gain.
Evangel offense a little rusty so far, though.
Quarterback Ro dropped right in front of the Eagles sideline
and are forced to punt.
It's a bad snap, but the Eagles get it off.
[Danny] Why! Why is Toad snapping?
[Peyton] Oh, get the ball.
[radio host] Evangel looking gun-shy on this possession.
[Danny] Toad! What are you thinking?
Don't you snap again!
Sorry.
[Danny] That's the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen in my life!
Don't start get out there doing stupid stuff!
[Haden] I love Coach Palmer to death, but him getting on to me,
I don't like it, but it pushes me to be better in the football field.
I'm a chill person, but once you're angry, you can't control what happens.
Anybody else I catch doing anything stupid!
That we don't do!
It'll flip that switch and I can get real dangerous.
I just go out there and I like to eat that.
[Peyton] Well, we're amped up right now.
Kept making mistakes.
Just go out there and move the football.
[radio host] Eagles have the ball back.
Ro Ballesteros let's it go.
Parker Fulghum hauls it in!
Touchdown Eagles!
Let's go! Let's go!
[radio host] Oh, my goodness,
a little salsa celebration in the end zone.
Even Coach Duron is enjoying this one.
My God, that first touchdown pass, getting that ball in Parker's hands...
Wow. I have no words to describe that feeling.
[Parker] You see the salsa? You see the salsa?
[radio host] Eagles defense now gotta hold the lead.
First down Bearkats.
Bearkats fall back to pass.
Number nine, Gabe Reliford, with an opening.
But he's stopped.
And the pass is complete.
They're at the 50, the 40...
A missed tackle.
He's gonna run it in for the score.
A big switch in momentum. Oh, my.
Extra point is good.
Game is tied.
I don't know, I feel like all the pressure that I've put on myself
was, like, getting to my head because I am messing up a lot
and it feels terrible.
But I'm really understanding how hard it is.
[radio host] Bearkats back with the ball.
Here's a quick pass.
Complete for another Bossier first down.
Listen, I hate to say this, but we may not be out of it,
so we got to go score some points, all right?
[radio host] Bearkat quarterback back to throw.
Evangel can't put pressure on him.
He goes deep...
It's complete. Receiver pushed out of bounds.
-[Parker] Let's go, D! -[Peyton] Let's go, D! Let's go, D!
[radio host] And the Bearkats are threatening.
Bearkats muscle their way into the end zone to take the lead.
It's 14 to 7 Bossier.
[cheerleaders] Let's go, Eagles!
[radio host] The Eagle offense has to go to work now
or risk letting this one getting away from 'em.
Let's go, baby. It's in your hands. Let's go.
[Peyton] Before the game, I said, "Look, Ro,
everybody on the field is looking up to you,
and you're the person everybody in the stands is looking down at.
I know you're nervous."
And I was like, "It's your time to shine. This is what you live for.
And you're a quarterback, so it's just in your blood.
It's what you do. You just gotta go game."
[hip hop music playing]
Let's go!
[radio host] Let's see what Ro can do with the ball now.
Hands it off to number zero, Brayden Curry.
Short gain.
Let's go!
[radio host] Here's a short pass to the outside.
But the Bearkats pounce on the receiver.
Knocked him down far short of the first down.
Third down and 12.
Big play here.
They gotta get the first down to keep the offense going.
They're playing catch-up.
Gotta get to the sticks.
Sticks.

Here comes the blitz.
He's got Parker Fulghum long.
It's a catch! First down! -[Peyton] Go on, baby! Go on, baby!
-Let's go, boy! -[radio host] What a play by Ro.
The fans are really energized right now. He did it.
Hey, you got it, Ro.
[radio host] Ro's back to pass.
Steps to his left.
Fires to the sideline.
He's got number three, DeShawn Johnson.
Touchdown!
That's a big-time play for the first-time quarterback.
Just what the Eagles needed.
[cheerleaders] Let's go, Eagles!
[Denny] This game is so close.
We are tied neck and neck going into this fourth quarter.
This is the moment.
We have to be perfect fundamentally together as a team.
[radio host] That's the end of the third quarter
on a nice passing drive by the Eagles.
This team is really looking good tonight.
[whistle blows]
The game clock is rolling.
Here's a handoff to number one, Tyreek Robinson.
Here's number 77, Toad, with a big block. Wow!
I just smashed through like a freight train.
It was like... boom!
It just felt great.
[radio host] Here's Ro from the shotgun.
Looks deep...
A highlight-reel catch by number 13, Parker Fulghum!
I guarantee you're gonna see this on the local news tonight.
It's in our hands. We gotta put this away, all right?
Down. Let's go!
[radio host] Ro is on fire.
Tyreek Robinson.
What a catch.
[all cheering]

-I love, Coach. -I love you too.
Hey, great job.
Four touchdowns. Pretty amazing.
[Ro] Thanks, Coach. Thank you.
-Cancun Cannon. Hey. -[laughs] Yes, Coach.
-You earned your name tonight. -Yes, sir.
-Love you. -Love you.
-Love you, bro. -I'm so proud of you.
I love you too, buddy. I'm so proud of you.
Ro, I'm just so excited for him, you know.
I think he did an outstanding job.
And for him to win a game, I know that that means a lot to him.
So I was just happy for him.
Thank you, Toad.
-Love you, buddy. -Love you, buddy.
Winning the game, wow, nothing like it.
I've never experienced something like that in my life.
Just a surreal moment.
Hey, big chapter in Evangel history tonight.
Big chapter.
[Ro] I was just thinking about my mom, my dad, and my family.
And I thought I have to call them.
[speaking Spanish] Guess what?
[Ro's mother speaking Spanish] You won.
Yes, we did.
I'm so happy for you.
Love you, Ma.
I love you with all my heart.
I send you all my strength.
God bless you.
Love you, Ma.
My mom was crying because they saw the game.
They found a link. I don't know how.
My dad and my brother, they were so happy.
All my family, man, they were so happy.
It feels like a movie.
