Knowledge of any rules differences between IL and Wisconsin HS football?

[SWsuburbs4]

For a team playing in Wisconsin in week 1, had the thought there could be a few minor differences in rules between states. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Running clock is 35 instead of 40, that’s all I got.

Running clock rule was one of my main questions.

WISCONSIN ADAPTATIONS TO NFHS
--The 25-yard line procedure, as outlined in the WIAA materials, must be used to resolve all senior high contests (varsity, junior varsity, sophomore, and freshmen/sophomore) which are tied at the end of regulation play. (Note: There is no overtime provision for teams with only Grade 9 students.)
--The following rule regarding the use of running time must be used: (1) After the first quarter, when the score differntial reaches 35 points or more, coaches may mutually agree to implement the use of the running clock. (2) After the first half any time the score differential reaches 35 points or more, beginning with the ensuing kickoff the following changes, and only these changes, will be made regarding rules determining when the clock will and will not be stopped. The clock will run continuously except for the following situations when it will be stopped: (a) Timeouts charged to a team. (b) After a score. (c) Intermission between 3rd and 4th quarters. (d) Extended injury time outs. (e) Any time officials determine it is necessary for safety reasons. Note: (a) Normal clock operating procedures resume when a team scores to make the differential less than 35 points in the third quarter. The running clock will be maintained in the fourth quarter even if the score differential goes below 35 points. (b) The use of this rule does not preclude the use of Rule 3-1-3 which reads: “A period or periods may be shortened in any emergency by agreement of the opposing coaches and the referee. By mutual agreement of the opposing coaches and the referee any remaining periods may be shortened at any time or the game may be terminated.”

--REQUIRED NUMBER OF OFFICIALS (1) Four WIAA licensed officials are required for all varsity interscholastic competition. (2) Four WIAA licensed officials are recommended for all nonvarsity contests, but only three are required. NOTE: Five WIAA licensed officials will be used in all playoff games.

So it looks like it is a 35 pt. running clock, and start at 25 instead of 10 for OT.

WISCONSIN ADAPTATIONS TO NFHS...

That is one of the best and most convoluted answers I have read in a long time.

WI starts play a week earlier, allow controlled scrimmages (4-team jamborees, for example) against other schools in Week 0, use districts format and the officials sport wider stripes on their shirts.

I would like to see IL do a 25 yard OT.
