To see I'm not so good! But schmilling I'm perfect!

Warning: Spoilers
***SPOILES*** The "Bowery Boys" end up in the ivy league collage Ivy University on a full scholarship not because of their soring IQ's but for the exact opposite reasons. There not even qualified to attend grade school much less kindergarten.

Diuring a boring session of chess two Ivy U alumnus' A,J Billingsley & Morgan T. Stanhope made a bet that anyone can attend and graduate from Ivy U if just given the chance even a borderline moron. And it's there where the boys, Slip Sach Junior Chuck & Butch, come in. Checking the poor and uneducated side of town, The Bowery, Billingsly & Stanhope come upon Louie's Sweet Shop and see the boys, acting like a bunch of jerks, in action and realize that they found what they were looking for.

At collage things don't go quite right for the "Bowery Boys" in them making complete buffoons, which isn't that hard, of themselves. That's until Sach, who's known as test tube head, starts to play with chemicals in the collage's chemistry department. Mixing a batch of goodies and gulping them down Sach soon becomes superhuman to the delight of the frustrated collage's football team's coach Rowland. Putting Sach on the team he becomes its star running back getting Ivy U into the collage finals against the hated State University who had beaten it the last 15 straight times that the two teams met.

***SPOILERS*** As you would have expected in films like this the local mobsters get involved in the big game in trying to fix it that the under dog State U who's a 1-3 in the betting wins with then putting a bundle of cash on it! The one thing that can make that happen is that Sach is somehow not able to get in the game. More or less average "Bowery Boys" movie with the exception of the ending that comes straight out of left field. In not that the person, Sach, whom you would have expected to come out of the bleachers or clubhouse and save the day for Ivy U but the person whom you would have expected to lose it!
