USFA has a rule I like (perhaps the only one, actually) that if a coach (either coach) calls a conference in the last 5 minutes of the game, the clock stops. Before they did this, it seems every coach would use his maximum number of conferences when it helped to do so - causing no end of grumbles and bad feelings on the other side. That's not softball. Now, with the rule - no one calls a late conference unless they actually need a late conference. Last tourney of 13 games, I stopped the clock exactly once for this.
