All American season 3 ends with some massive cliffhangers; here’s what happened in the finale and how it sets up All American season 4. The third season of All American juggled multiple storylines across its nineteen episodes, but everything was building towards a potential showdown between South Crenshaw and Beverly Hills or the state championship. The CW’s popular football drama based on Spencer Paysinger’s pre-NFL football life took some surprising turns in its season 3 finale though.

Picking up after the events of All American season 2, the third season began once summer break ended and revealed how the summer changed a lot between the main characters. Spencer James (Daniel Ezra) remained at the forefront of the show, as he battled regaining strength in his arm and repairing relationships he broke along the way. All American season 3 also included storylines about Olivia Baker’s (Samantha Logan) struggle with alcohol and the complicated relationship between Jordan Baker (Michael Evans Behling) and Simone Hicks (Geffri Maya). Of course, it wouldn’t be a football TV show if the on-field performance of South Crenshaw and Beverly Hills didn’t impact the characters, especially with both teams having hopes to win the state championship.

The multiple storylines All American season 3 juggled led to a fairly busy finale that set up exactly where the show is going to go in season 4. This includes some significant reveals about the show’s main characters, drastically different relationship dynamics, and a few giant cliffhangers.

Coop and Mo Are Shot – Did They Die?

The final shot of All American season 3 focuses on the fallout of an encounter between Coop (Bre-Z) and Mo (Erica Peeples), which might’ve killed one or both of them. All American season 2 ended with the tease of Mo coming to Crenshaw to get revenge on Coop for her role in Tyrone’s death. Mo took a slow approach to exact her revenge and got Coop to momentarily put her guard down. This allowed her to plot a plan for drugs to be planted on Coop’s tour bus and have cops ready to bust her. While Mo expected Coop to be arrested, Coop figured out the plan and surprised Mo at her house. This led to Mo shooting Coop, but Preach (Kareem J. Grimes) arrived at the same time and shot Mo.

All American season 3’s ending doesn’t confirm if either Coop or Mo survived this moment, but it doesn’t look good for either of them. Mo is left unattended following her gunshot wound to the chest, and the fact that 911 hasn’t been called is not a good sign that she’ll survive. Meanwhile, Preach rushes to Coop to try and slow down the bleeding, but she also has a gunshot wound in her chest. The safe bet is that Coop will survive considering her importance to All American’s story, while Mo’s villain plot could already be over.

South Crenshaw and Beverly Hills’ State Championship Doesn’t Happen (Yet)

The entirety of All American season 3 was leading to the potential of South Crenshaw and Beverly Hills facing off in the state championship. Both teams had their highs and lows throughout the season, but viewers expected to see the schools get their rematch in the finale. However, All American season 3’s ending sets up this game to be played in season 4 after an altercation between the teams nearly leads to its cancelation. Crenshaw and Beverly’s players broke out into a fight outside the stadium due to some incredibly high tempers. Players on both teams were made because Spencer secretly was helping Jordan train, while Jordan was still jealous of JJ (Hunter Clowdus) keeping the starting quarterback spot. The brawl left star players on both teams bloody and bruised, but coach Billy Baker (Taye Diggs) and coach Montes (Alexandra Barreto) lied to the refs to make sure the game still happens. Since All American season 3’s finale ends right when both teams are running onto the field, the game itself will have to wait until season 4.

Spencer James and Jordan Baker Become All-Americans

There was also some good news for Spencer and Jordan in All American’s season 3 finale. Billy reveals to Spencer early on in the episode that he’s been selected to the All-American team for his outstanding season. This moment finally pays off the show’s title by making Spencer James a high school All-American athlete. While this originally makes Jordan jealous of Spencer and angry about the head injury that forced him to miss a good part of the season, he also receives some good news by the end. Jordan is also selected to the All-American team, but as a reserve, and only now finds out due to some mailing mishaps. Now, the All-American game is likely to be featured in All American season 4.

DeSean Jackson’s All-American Cameo Explained

One of the surprises of All American’s season 3 ending was its cameo by NFL wide receiver DeSean Jackson. He plays himself in the finale and goes to Crenshaw to attend Spencer’s party for being named an All-American. Billy reveals that DeSean has been monitoring Spencer’s year. DeSean doesn’t have a professional relationship with Spencer Paysinger in real life, but the explanation for him appearing in the All American finale is due to his connection to Crenshaw. Jackson grew up in the neighborhood in real life and attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School, where he became a star football, track, and baseball player. As one of Crenshaw’s best home-grown athletes, his cameo in All American season 3 highlights his importance to the neighborhood and further combines the show with reality.

What Is Carrie Planning To Do To Layla?

Another cliffhanger All American season 3 leaves viewers on is what will happen next to Layla (Greta Onieogou). The back half of the season has included the return of Carrie (Anna Lore), a girl Layla previously befriended while in rehab. Carrie has been living with Layla for a while, but Layla upsets her when she reveals she called Carrie’s parents. While Layla is just trying to help Carrie and her family, Carrie feels betrayed by these actions. She eventually agrees to visit her parents with Layla before they go on a trip, but All American season 3’s ending revealed she might have something else planned. Carrie left a note for Layla’s father JP Keating (Ray Campbell) that said Layla will never come back, and she threw Layla’s phone in the trash to make sure no one could contact her. Carrie has shown clear signs of wanting to keep Layla all to herself, but the reason for this hasn’t been revealed. Carrie could be planning to kidnap Layla to make sure she can’t abandon her, or there is a chance Carrie is planning to hurt herself and take Layla’s life with her.

Asher’s Football Career Is Over

The All American season 3 finale was a rollercoaster ride for Asher Adams (Cody Christian). It began with him getting a full-ride scholarship to play football for Coastal California. However, his dreams of continuing to play football on the collegiate level appear to be over. Right before Beverly Hills ran onto the field to play the state championship, Asher’s dad appeared in the locker room with tears in eyes and told his son he couldn’t play. This was because recent X-rays revealed that Asher has a rare heart condition called cardiomyopathy. The X-rays were done after Asher took a huge hit in the middle of the field during a full-contact practice two days before the championship. While they confirmed his bruised ribs were fine, Asher’s heart disease took further examination to be revealed. It’s a heartbreaking ending for Asher’s story in season 3 after he worked his way back from the steroid controversy in season 2 and switched to defense.

Who Will Win The State Championship Game In Season 4?

Based on everything that transpired over the course of All American season 3 and its finale, the state championship game between South Crenshaw and Beverly Hills will be quite different than imagined. As viewers now have to wait until season 4 to see who will come out on top, it’s easy to look ahead and speculate about who will win the game – and the edge should be in Crenshaw’s favor. Before exploring the x’s and o’s of their teams, Crenshaw has the bonus of having the show’s main character on its roster. Spencer already led Beverly Hills to a state title and doing it with South Crenshaw would fulfill his promise. Meanwhile, Crenshaw likely has the upper hand with Spencer learning Beverly’s entire playbook while training Jordan, while Billy also knows Jordan’s tendencies and weaknesses better than anyone. The new plays designed by Asher could be a point in Beverly’s favor, but his absence on the defensive side of the ball will be massive. So, All American has established narrative and on-the-field reasons why Crenshaw should win the state championship when season 4 begins.
