- a The game, won by Dillon on the field 22–21, was subsequently forfeited because quarterback "Voodoo" Tatum was ruled ineligible for not having satisfied residency requirements.
- b Final score not revealed, though a TV newscast indicates the game was not close.
- c Final score not shown, but Dillon scored a touchdown with about 5 minutes left in scoreless game.
- d The referees at Dunston were allowing the home team to commit infractions such as facemasks, late hits, and pass interference without penalties. When Dillon scored in the fourth quarter to take a commanding 40–24 lead, a Cardinal hit Smash after he scored the touchdown, again with no penalty call. Riggins rushed to Smash's defense and a melee ensued before the extra point could be attempted. The game was called at that point and Dillon was awarded the victory.
- e The game was played at a makeshift field due a toxic train car derailment.

Famous quotes containing the words fictional, game and/or results:
“It is change, continuing change, inevitable change, that is the dominant factor in society today. No sensible decision can be made any longer without taking into account not only the world as it is, but the world as it will be.... This, in turn, means that our statesmen, our businessmen, our everyman must take on a science fictional way of thinking.”
—Isaac Asimov (1920–1992)
“In the game of love, the losers are more celebrated than the winners.”
—Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
“We do not raise our children alone.... Our children are also raised by every peer, institution, and family with which they come in contact. Yet parents today expect to be blamed for whatever results occur with their children, and they expect to do their parenting alone.”
—Richard Louv (20th century)
