You may remember from the Texas at Providence game earlier this year, the light is the definitive end of the game; not the horn (can't hear it on the replay) or the clock.

In this game, a Texas player released a game winning shot so close to time expiring that they used replay to determine that the shot should count. Here's the kicker, the ball was still in the shooter's hand when the game clock showed 0:00, but was deemed to have been out of the shooters hand when the red light went on behind the backboard. Although the light is supposed to illuminate at exactly the same time as the clock reaches 0:00, there was a slight delay between the clock and the light. That exceedingly small delay allowed the officials to deem the shot had been released before the end of the game. The officials released a statement after the game that said the light and not the horn or clock, signals the end of the game.
