In the NFL there is a line to gain marker on both sides of the field. On the HL side, it's the front stake of the chains and on the other side, it's a just a pole. The line to gain guy lines it up by eyeballing the opposite side (remember NFL fields are superbly marked and many crews tend to start a series on a yardline). I think the switch is so each official gets evenly roasted.
