That just it. It really has nothing to do with football. It just uses the score at the end of each quarter to determine the winner. It’s akin to using the last digit of the hash at the Casine.

Many played last year with zero knowledge of American Football.
Well shit ! Can we just use the last character of block hashes instead of the football score?
The square board game is essentially a graph. You have an x axis that is represented by team A and an x axis that is represented by team B. At the end of each quarter, you time team A’s score (last digit) and team B’s score (last digit) and find where the two intersect and that tells you the winner. Since the game scores are published, it’s easily verified.
The squares are assigned randomly, as well as the numbers on each axis. The board is published before the start of the game. The NOSTR game is set up for one entry for 25k sats gets you four chances at 625k sats.
