Billy Ray Kincaid is in the catbird seat. He owns the TV Sports Network, BTSN, and employs Cissy, with just one name, a sexy young sideline reporter with big ambitions but little talent. BTSN televises the top college football game each week, But the self proclaimed turnaround artist who made his fortune by stripping down small factories and firing people went cheap and now BTSN is about to go bust. Enter Jake Eliam, a lifetime baseball man, who scrapes by making baseball bats on the edge of a train yard known as ChickenBone. He is content with this small job but when cash runs low his best friend Catfish, the owner of the 3 PIGS BBQ, steps in with hot pulled pork, cold cash and work as a private investigator. When Alabama faces Georgia in the biggest game of the year, Catfish, who was a football star at Georgia, wrangles Jake to play bodyguard to Cissy who is the subject of an unusual stalker. As Jake takes on the task of protecting Cissy, he soon finds out there is a lot more going on behind the scenes of the network telecast than just a football game. The easy payday soon turns into a blocked punt of greed and deception. As the trail winds to the old Dixie Dew Pickle Factory in the North Georgia mountains, Jake rounds up his friends and a team of misfits including a drunken former Bulldog they call Dumptruck and a reclusive ex-con named Boobytrap. His ragtag team has time to run one last play on 4th and long or end up permanently benched.
