Revealing mistake: The scene with one of the girls in the Pi house undressing on the TV was filmed with a handheld camera. Lewis tells Lamar to pan the scene right which it does. Cut to the scene of the woman undressing and the scene is shaking, like someone is holding the camera. These should be stationary shots. We even see the camera that is filming the shot and it's strapped down with a periscope.

Audio problem: At the start of the homecoming carnival, there are guys playing trumpets. They drop them as if they're done playing and the sound continues a bit longer than it should.

Continuity mistake: At the end when Gilbert is giving his "I'm a nerd" speech, he finishes and there is a pause. You can see Lewis' shadow coming to Gilbert's side from screen right before he actually comes over.

Continuity mistake: During the sequence with the football players and liquid heat, some of them end up on the ground in pain. In the next shot from the opposite angle, none are on the ground.

Trivia: As Lewis and Gilbert are pulling into Adams for the first time, notice on the right a billboard for a radio station in Tucson. The film was shot on and around the University of Arizona campus in Tucson.
