I think another possibility is that some top-level officials often give the signal without stopping the clock first. In other words, they go right to the PC signal (or worse, they just point -- JPS syndrome). If you get two -- or three -- guys on a crew that do that, it makes it much easier to imagine the blarge happening.
JMO, but I think this is one rules difference (interpretation, really) where the NCAAW have it right.
