By rule, light and horn have to be at the same time.
The clock can be up to 0.1 off, so that's the last resort.
As for the first two, in a replay situation, horn takes precedent, I believe.

No Mark, the light takes precedent.
The Texas game was handled correctly. Tim Higgins and John Clougherty correctly ruled that the ball was released prior to the light being lit.

Thank you, Tony. So if I understand this correctly, when a buzzer beater occurs in a D-I game, the officials will certainly go to the monitor and have a look. Therefore, the sounding of the horn is totally worthless.
They will look for the light behind or around the backboard coming on, which should be simultaneous with the clock showing 0.0, but if it is not the light will take priority over the clock.
It looks like 1. light 2. clock 3. horn (meaningless)
PS Do you have anything written by the NCAA on this or are you just going from the TX/Prov game and what was said after it?
