Here, if a game has a 40 point margin in the second half, the clock becomes a running clock and stops only for time outs, the intermission between periods 3 and 4, and free throws in the last minute of the game (or is it last 2 minutes, I can't remember that part at the moment). Also, if the margin is cut back to 30 or less, we go back to a regular clock.

The point-differential rule for Michigan will be identical to what was used in 2001-02, and will be used at all levels of play. When a 40-point differential is reached at any time beginning in the second half, the clock will not stop with the following exceptions:
Called time outs;
Injuries;
The end of a period, and;
For the shooting of free throws in the final two minutes of the fourth quarter.
