The Hardys have come to the West Coast for Christmas break, and they're about to tackle a case of pro football foul play. Following the suspicious death of their star player, the San Diego Sharks have hit the skids, and their owner is convinced it's a setup. The boys agree o go undercover and are soon mixing it up with some hard and heavy hitters.

Talk of contraband in the locker room, of blackmail and bribery, lead Frank and Joe to believe that a crime syndicate has infiltrated the team. Big money is at stake, and there's no telling how far the syndicate will go to protect its interests. The blitz is on, and if the Hardys don't come up with a few trick plays of their own, they could face sudden death!
