Last year, due to issues such as a lack of offensive line depth, the game was played with an unconventional offense/defense scoring system.
This year, the Blue Team will play the White Team, and that’s the way most fans want it to be.
Additional game details were revealed Friday evening for Saturday’s scrimmage scheduled to kickoff at 2.
SIDELINES
The Blue Team will be on the visitor’s sideline and the White Team will be on the home side.
QUARTERS
There will be four quarters, as with most games, but the quarters will be 11 minutes, not 15. The clock will only stop for change of possession, penalties and timeouts, of which each team has two. The clock will also run during special teams.
