That scenario came out of an NCAA game. John Clougherty, ACC Director of Officials, talked about it in this thread.

It happened in the Virginia Tech/Bowling Green game. The defense tapped a missed shot down low just before the buzzer and it was in the air when the red light came on. It went in after the light came on. Unfortunately, the officials counted it; they didn't notice at that time that the tap came off the defense and not the offense. The NCAA rule is basically the same as the NFHS one- the ball is dead on the light in NCAA unless it a try or tip by the
offense.
If you go way back and can find it, there's a thread posted that shows the film of that play.
