The college rule is the same (ignoring, for the moment, the fact that the clock stops after a basket in the last minute -- had the play been some sort of violation or foul, the NCAA ruling and the FED ruling would be the same).
Bob, while the rule may be the same, does the NCAA use the interpretation that the official is not permitted to put back time if it's less than one second? I can't find that anywhere.

You're saying that if we had a travel with 0.6 and the clock ran out, we'd end the game in NCAA? Even with definite knowledge? Even with a monitor to check?
Yes. It was in one of the recent NCAA memos (see the NCAA web site).
How does that fit with AR 30 which specifically says that we can put the time back on if we have definite knowledge of what the time should be?
The AR is the same as the FED rule (if not as clear). If the clock stops within one second, leave it alone. If the clock doesn't stop within one second (cases b and c), put it back to what the official knows.
