I've never read a Fed book in my life, but here's how I would go:
1. Read Rule 7 (NCAA) on Snapping and Passing the ball. Pay particular attention to the early part about formations.
2. Read Rule 2 (NCAA) on Definitions. Go over every term that was in Rule 7 that is defined in Rule 2 with a fine tooth comb. Now, go back and reread Rule 7 with a newfound respect for the terms like pass, complete, etc. It might even be a good idea to make a copy of the Definitions rule and keep it handy for reading the other rules.
3. Read Rule 9 (NCAA) on Conduct of Players, etc.
4. Read Rule 10 (NCAA) on Penalty enforcement.
For the offseason, I would focus on these 4 rules. Not that the other ones aren't important -- you'll need to get into the kick rule closely. But a solid understanding of these 4 rules will provide probably 80% of what you need to know to work a good game. After you've been over these time and again, then start going through the other ones in no particular order. Be sure and read the case book or ARs for NCAA.
