Description: A comedy in which a college football coach solves the problems of his losing team and his beau-less daughter.

State College football coach George Cooper (Fred MacMurray) has more than enough problems on the job without his teenage daughter Connie (Betty Lynn) complicating his life at home. Connie is convinced that she is unattractive to the opposite sex and wallows in frustrated self-pity. When she gets a check for $180 for a fictional article she pens about a teenage bubble dancer that recently appeared in a confessions magazine, the boys come calling.
