Bobby Boucher (Adam Sandler) is a 31 year old living in the swamps with his overbearing, alligator-eating mum (Kathy Bates). He works as a waterboy for the local college football team and is continually ridiculed by the players and the coach.

When Bobby is fired from his job, he transfers his water skills to the losing team of a rival college. There the washed-up coach (Henry Winkler) spots some hidden talents - the waterboy can tackle like no one he's ever seen.

Bobby soon joins the college as a student, dates a jail bird and leads the football team to victory. But he hasn't yet told his mother!
