As far as the NFL and college football is concerned, that would be irrelevant. When you win the coin toss before the opening kickoff, you have four options. You can receive the opening kickoff, kickoff, select a goal to defend, or defer your decision to the second half. If you defer, the other team gets to select whether they want to receive the opening kickoff, kickoff, or select a goal to defend. At the beginning of the second half, the team that A) lost the opening coin toss and the other team did not defer or B) won the opening coin toss and elected to defer gets first selection as to how they want to start the second half. That being said, the following scenarios would work:1) Win the opening toss and defer. Before the second half kickoff, choose to defend the goal where the wind is at your face. That would put the wind at your back, offensively, for the fourth quarter. The problem with that is you will wind up kicking off to start both halves.2) Lose the opening toss and the other team elects something other than defer. That will give you the first choice to start the second half. For the first choice, you select to defend the goal where the wind is at your face. That would put the wind at your back, offensively, for the fourth quarter. Again, you will wind up kicking off to start both halves.The goal that you defend to start the game has nothing to do with the goal that you will be defending at the end of the game.
Pittsburgh Steelers.
Immediately prior to the opening kickoff, the referee meets at midfield with the captains of both teams. He flips a coin after a captain of the visiting team calls heads or tails. If the call is correct, the visiting team gets to decide whether they will receive the opening kickoff, kick the opening kickoff, choose an end zone to defend, or defer their choice to the beginning of the second half. If the call is incorrect, the home team gets to decide what they want to do. If the team that wins the toss defers their choice to the second half, the other team gets to choose from the remaining three options to start the game.
