I don't know how the show goes but I already know that Tyra, Riggins, and Layla are in the same grade as Matt Saracen (sophomores).

I mean wtf that makes no sense, first off the likely hood of a stud D1 prospect senior QB dating a sophomore since she was in 8th grade is ridiculous.

Also the way Riggins, Tyra, and Layla act is not the way sophomores act. Tyra hooked up with a dude who was at least 21 probably older, Riggins also openly binge drinks in front of his brother and his coaches seem to know about it.

Also Saracen is clearly supposed to be younger than them

Wtf

If you have these problems in the first season, you might as well stop now.

You don't have clear eyes or a full heart.

It makes perfect sense. When the show started, the writers hadn't considered that they couldn't keep the show going multiple seasons if all of the characters graduated from high school after the first season. So in the next seasons they made everyone except Saracen and Street younger so as to realistically keep the same characters in the show longer. Not hard to figure out. It was a writing frick up that they fixed as well as they could.

I was waiting for this comment

None of you openly got wasted everyday in front of your family, friends, coaches, and teachers as a sophomore in high school

Dude of all the things to complain about. This is as old as time.



Repeated Junior year in High School - even though she is apparently the Valedictorian and 35 years old.



Senior in High School...smokes in the hallways.



Season 1 - 18 years old, we are told he just dropped out of high school.



High school senior

FNL tried way too hard 90% of the time, yet it was still one of the better shows on TV.

Riggins was a captain of a giant Texas HS team as a sophomore and Lyla was captain of the cheerleading squad as a sophomore...
