Please tell me your rulebook doesn't actually call them innings...

Our overtime procedure does too (we're in Wisconsin).

It doesn't, but "inning" is the best way to describe the OT procedure.

Originally (1870s) the periods were called innings. Probably because baseball had an established set of rules (from the 1850s) and football was trying to emulate baseball's nationalized rule set.

Even so, NFHS's and NCAA's overtime rules are inning based, whether we call it that or not.
