Loyola (Illinois) faces Mississippi State in a 1963 men's basketball tournament regional semifinal. Mississippi State, an all-white team, sneaks out of town in the middle of the night despite protests from the governor and state police of Mississippi. The film details how MSU coach Babe McCarthy, MSU President Dean Colvard, and Athletics Director Wade Walker risked their personal safety and jeopardized their jobs by sneaking the MSU team out of Mississippi during the night so it could play Loyola, despite protests from the governor and state police officials, threats from the community, and a pending court injunction.
