The team is split into two teams: offense and defense. The defense will start with a 24-0 lead, there will be a 60-minute running clock, and the offense will have the time allotted to try and win the game. The winners will likely eat steak, with the losers eating hot dogs, according to Freeze. Points will be awarded the same as an official football game for touchdowns, safeties, field goals and extra points. There will be no points for turnovers or big plays, things like that.

Weather report

NOTE: The updates at the top are the most recent.

— There are probably 1,000 people here 30 minutes before we start, all huddle up underneath the overhangs of the upper decks.

— It’s raining and has been for the last two hours. It’s actually picked up steam. I’m not sure what gets accomplished in this game other than allowing fans to see a little football.
