Complete story — includes the ending
Racial tensions are at an all-time high as the black players on the Dillon Panthers won't play unless Mac McGill is fired for his comments, forcing Coach Taylor to dip into the JV roster. Also Coach Taylor deliberates between firing one of his best coaches and succumbing to his players' demands, Julie's friendship with Tyra becomes more and more destructive. And even when they come together and all the players play, the team comes against biased referees and Smash has to keep his cool when he finds himself deliberately targeted by the opposition. Meanwhile, Jason makes a life-changing decision and Matt does whatever he can to win Julie back.
