Toss of coin will be made to determine team that has first offensive series. Four downs will be allowed for each team. If neither team scores, a second series of 4 downs from the 10-yard line will be started in the same order as the first.
If neither team scores in the second series, the game will be recorded as a tie, one-half win, one half loss in the standings.
