IHSAA OVERTIME PROCEDURES FOR SUBVARSITY FOOTBALL GAMES:
Despite what we guessed at the last IOA football meeting, there are no differences between Marion County and everyone else. For JV and Frosh tie-games, there are a maximum of two overtimes, EXCEPT if a “fifth” quarter is utilized, the game will end in a tie (no overtimes will be played if a fifth quarter is utilized). Games still tied after two overtimes will end as a tie. The overtime procedures are listed on page 84 of the rules book and case-book interpretations are on page 85.

SUSPENDED GAME INFORMATION SHEET:
