It was designed to warn teams there are 2 minutes remaining in the half. Shocking, I know.

on 11/2/19 at 10:39 am to tigerdup07I’m just glad it’s not in college... it’s a super shite rule. We might have lost that auburn game if there was a 2 minute warning.

on 11/2/19 at 10:41 am to tigerdup07because College Football is a better product, and doesn't need a "warning" that the half is nearly over.

on 11/2/19 at 11:17 am to tigerdup07As recently as the 60s, the stadium clock was not official and was usually an analog clock. Official time was kept on a stop watch by one of the officials. Of course, there was no clock to warn the qb he was about to get a penalty for delay. (another interesting piece of trivia - the coin toss was not conducted on the field. It happened under the stands about 10 minutes before the game).

2) 3 minute warning doesn't quite have the same cachet

on 11/2/19 at 4:55 pm to tigerdup07I like the 2 minute warning for the NFL and I like that it isn't part of college football. The clock stopping on first downs in college and not in the NFL is my reasoning behind this.
