I maybe wrong, but many, many years ago, I believe in the old "Hula Bowl" played in Hawaii, that rule was automatically in effect during the fourth quarter. In other words, if the team behind scored in the fourth quarter, they would again receive the next kickoff. The "Hula Bowl" cited the previous mentioned rules as the legal basis for this. They did this to protect themselves against a lopsided game. Needless to say, there some amazing come from behind rallies in this contest, and some very exhausted defensive squads!
