There is one part of the rule that is a bit peculiar, just wondering if this is consistent with other states. Once the running clock begins, (35 points) the clock continues to run the rest of the game (except for time-outs, injuries and techs). So the situation could exist that a team that is down 35 points, accidently comes back and sends the game to overtime, the OT would still use the running clock.
Of course I want to see the team that can pull that one off

LSams,
I like Michigan's "Stop the clock in the last two minutes for free throws.", because it will probably get a sub's name in the paper.
Getting 'print' is often better, than getting points.
