Among the students at Tait College are football star Tom Marlowe, whose neglect of studies threatens the chances of the school team; Bobby, a wise-cracking freshman, who makes a play for the school vamp, Babe, and wins her; and Connie, who falls for Tom.

Although they all prefer the Varsity Drag to studying, Tom is finally reinstated with the help of Professor Kenyon.  He wins the climactic game as well as the love of Connie.
