The OOB restart has always been the CFL rule even before the NFL adopted it. But as has been shown, too many plays have been taken out of college football games using this "speed-up" rule. But to counter that, using CFL rules there would be a 3:00 warning at the end of the first play with less than 3:00 left. Then the clock stop and reduced play clock rules would be in effect.
