I was watching the game and wondering why the announcers were not realizing that they were playing in Boulder and the clock operator was very liberal with his finger. The play was completed with about 4 seconds left on the clock downfield. I do not know which side of the field it was on, but the game clock is the SJ responsibility. If any errors could be corrected it would be his responsibility. If the play was on his side, by the time he looked at the game clock, it might have already been stopped at 2 seconds. Nebraska grounded the ball almost immediately, the SJ could have corrected that error of 2 seconds going off.

Remember announcers do not know the rules very well (i.e. Joe Thiesman).
