One thing Indiana does differently from a mechanical standpoint is in regards to the dead ball signal (arm raised over their head). If the covering official signals to stop the clock for a first down in bounds or any runner out of bounds or if they signal incomplete, they also need to give the dead ball signal. The IHSAA doesn't think play clock operators are able to know to se the clock to 40 and start it without that signal. I ask the play clock operator every week if they know what to do without that signal and every one has said yes. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For accepted penalties against the defense, the play clock should be set to 40 seconds. Accepted penaties on the offense, play clock should be set to 25. Everything else in the PDF looks good. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a change after the original rule so it's possible the document is outdated. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
