They are missing the defensive scoring system for safeties. Maybe it's double the in-game total there (4 points) or something like that..

Are they missing some minuses in there? I would think a punt by the offense would be -2 points.
It nets -3 since the defense is awarded 5.

FGs are also strange. A made FG nets 0 bc both offense and defense are awarded 3. That has to be a typo or a brain fart. A missed FG nets -3 for offense since only defense is awarded 3 there. Which is better than going for it and not making since defense gets 7 for a 4th down stop.

Refer back to gif.

if I understand Lebby correctly, the 1s and 2s will play as a unit. So I take it to mean there will be various matchups on difference series?

1s v 2s
2s v 1s
1s v 1s
2 v 2

maybe? I like the idea of that.

Probably an award for defense holding them to a FG. Net 0 for offense only getting a FG instead of TD and for defense giving up points. A tie if you will.

Here's a radical idea. Why not pit the #1 offense and #2 defense vs the #2 offense and #1 defense and just play football? Not that spring football games were ever anything much to begin with, but good Lord, they've just gotten ridiculously bad.
