well I'd say shoot wide open with high ISO at the highest shutter speed you can get.

Not sure of what age group you plan on shooting the Football games but most sport programs does not allow flash on the sidelines indoors or out.
I've seen some use it in the past and asked to turn it off or leave the field/court.
If allowed to use flash be very carfull when using it so that game winning play is not broken do to your flash went off @ the wrong time.
Settings with the 10D I used the ISO 400 F/2.8 and the highest speed possible depending on the age group.
