I learned an interesting rule tonight. A player who receives his second yellow during halftime is ejected but the team is allowed to sub the player and they are allowed to play with 11.
It seems interesting that a push at 39:59 that results in a second yellow means the team must play down a player, but a push at 40:01 (or immediately after the whistle for halftime) that results in a second yellow means the team may sub the ejected player and play with 11.
Yes, only in College does this result in a team playing short.
