Most of the extra fans present at the Bourbon Bowl are UCF students.
The South Central Muddogs` stadium is the DeLand High School football field in DeLand Florida, the school agreed to let the director use the field if he paid for the stadium to be refurbished after filming.
The cheerleaders and outfits were donated by Boone High School in Orlando Florida.
