25/40 sec clock

We are now using the 25/40 sec play clock as per the 2009-10 NCAA Rules. The basic rule of thumb is if the play stops for any sort of administration of the game then there is a 25 play sec clock. If the game is continuing along at its own volition then the 40 sec play clock will be in play. Even if a 1st down is awarded then between plays is still 40 secs.

This comes under Rule 3 of the rule book.
