At one point in the movie someone says that Duluth has beaten Pottsville. However, the 1925 Pottsville Maroons only lost two games that season, to Frankford and Providence, on their way to beating Chicago in the League Championship. The League stripped the Maroons of their title after Pottsville defeated a Notre Dame team that included the Four Horsemen. At the time, it was widely recognized that Pottsville helped legitimize the fledgling league by not only beating the best team ever fielded up to that point, but through their use of a professional, team-oriented approach to their play, instead of the barnstorming methods employed up to that point.
