- Trivia(at around 55 mins) When the first play is shown, the Rams' Quarterback (Robert Waterfield) runs the ball down the right sideline, it may appear that he is tackled and down at the 7-yard line. However, while that would be true by the NFL rules today, this game was played in 1954 when the rules for tackling were more similar to rugby - the tackler had to maintain his grasp on the downed runner, otherwise the runner was still free to continue forward.
- Goofs(at around 1h 21 mins) In the Championship game, the announcer states that it is a scoreless game in the 2nd period with the Rams "on the move". Filiberto Van Braun then passes to Elroy 'Crazylegs' Hirsch for a touchdown, and Waterfield kicks the extra point. The scoreboard is then shown, and it indicates that the Rams are leading 7-0 with about 10 minute left in the 1st quarter.
