There will be two squads: a maroon team and a white team. The quarters will each be 12 minutes in length, with the first running normally and the three subsequent periods featuring a running clock. The clock will run during special teams, and will adhere to a traditional clock operation during the final two minutes of the second and fourth quarters.

Each team will be allotted two timeouts, which will be 30 seconds long apiece. The whole game will be live except for quarterbacks and the contest will feature a traditional in-game scoring system: six points for a touchdown, one for a PAT and three for a field goal.

The special teams system will feature a snapper, holder and kicker only for field goals, a kicker and kickoff returner for kickoffs and a snapper, punter and punt returner for punts.

The contest will feature three competitions: a pre-game kickoff that will be between the two teams' kickers. There will be a punt competition between the maroon team punters and white team punters between the second and third quarters, while there will be a field goal competition post-game.

Here's the full list of players for each team:
