Zach Gilford Mentions Taylor In Q&A

Written by Kelly

SI.com: Sara Nguyen, of Harrisburg, Pa., asks, "Of all the actors on the show, who do you think would be picked highest in an NFL draft? Scott Porter [Jason Street]? Gaius Charles [Smash Williams]? Taylor Kitsch [Tim Riggins]?" Gilford: Probably Taylor. He's a good athlete, but Scott will kill me for saying that. Scott played football growing up and he has a good arm, but Taylor is faster and I think that would help his draft status. SI.com: Do you have any bizarre fan stories, since the people who watch the show are so passionate about it? Gilford: Not really. But since we were talking about Facebook, I thought I had Taylor as one of my friends on Facebook. And then one day we were talking and Facebook came up and he said, "Yeah, I've never been on there." And I was like, "Really, I have you as a friend." Someone had made a fake Taylor page, so I had to delete "him" right away.     SI.com: What has been your all-time favorite scene to film? Gilford: I really liked filming all the football stuff for this year's championship game at Memorial Stadium. It really hit Taylor and I both that even if the show stayed on the air and even if we stayed on the show, that was our last time putting on a Panthers uniform. We played every down. We didn't let our doubles do anything. Even if we weren't on camera in that last championship-game episode, we'd run the routes because we knew it would be the last time. So that was really fun. There was a lot of stuff toward the end of this season. It just had a lot of weight to it -- [like] that scene when Taylor and I were on the front lawn of the capital in Austin playing Frisbee.
