Some good ones:

Hot Tub Time Machine
(Champs Sports Bowl: Florida State vs. Notre Dame, Dec. 29 in Orlando, Fla.) An outrageous comedy in which we're transported back to a time when these two programs actually mattered.

Ordinary People
(Orange Bowl: Clemson vs. West Virginia, Jan. 4 in Miami Gardens, Fla.) A pair of three-loss teams ranked outside the top 10 prove you don't have to be special to reach a BCS game.

Music City isn't listed, but trying to think of what it would be.

ETA this might be better moved to the Pit.

Can't Buy Me Love

The story of one character so obsessed with being accepted by the more popular, successful crowd that he attempts to fake his way through life, only to end up destined for the loser's table.
 
Sticking with the music city theme, something like that Johnny Cash movie.

Guessing you meant this to be about Wake, but it's just as true of Miss. State. Well done.
 
I was thinking more along the lines of Christmas Vacation:

An otherwise normal upper-middle class family after a tough year tries to, for once, have a nice holiday; that is, until the rednecks show up in their trailer home and crash the party.
 
Wake-Miss State.

Napoleon Dynamite. Starring Lobo as Uncle Rico.
