In 1983 the 3-minute warmup was required with USC to the HC if not. While there hasn't been any proposal to remove that, there has been some discussion regarding it. If a team is straggling back on the field, if at least half are on the field ,with the rest a' coming, in Maine we say : "Ayuh, 'spect close enough." If both teams are not on the field once the scheduled halftime has ended, the 3-minute warmup clock will begin. We will then ask the team who has the choice what choice they wish, as it could have changed with the looming 15 yarder.
