Summary: AU. After the sudden heart attack of Coach Sumner, Pegasus High School needs to find a new football coach. But will Coach Sheppard be able to hold the Atlanteans together? And can he bring them to the State Championships? Football, ferris wheels, and a grouchy physics teacher who talks faster than two hundred miles per hour ensue.
Notes: This was heavily inspired by Friday Night Lights. You don't need to see the show to understand any of this, but those of you who have will find that some things will look very familiar. I would like to thank
queenzulu for being with me every step of the way and for her incredible job bringing my football up to par,
roga for poking me into writing this when it was just a wee bunny and for calling me on my laziness, and
savemoony for audiencing and listening to me bitch when I needed it most. This would not be here if not for them.
