40 or 25

This play is from the Oklahoma-Florida game. The exact situation occured in the Ole Miss-Texas Tech game.

Late in both games, with the team in the lead in possession, they ran a running play, runner tackled inbounds. The 40 second clock began to countdown, game clock still running. At around the 33-34 second mark in both games, the whistle blew for an injured defensive player.(Both defenses had TO's remaining) After the player was attended to and left the field. the R "pumped" the play clock with both hands, resetting the clock to 40 seconds and wound the game clock.

I thought that after a injury timeout, the play clock would be set at 25. NCAA rule 3-2-4c.

Your thoughts, please.

Thanks, Mike
