Additionally, the replay clearly shows that the contact occured with 1.5 seconds left in the period. But the officials put 5.5 seconds back up on the clock after the foul was assessed. I have no idea how they came up with that.

If Bob should read this, I don't have my NCAA book handy. Is either of these 2 situations reviewable on the replay? My guess is that the first situation (was the ball released before the contact?) is NOT reviewable. But I think that they could have gone to the replay to put the correct time back on the clock.

Boy, when the Big 10 Director of Officials sits down with this crew, it's not going to be a pleasant experience.
Chuck, the clock that you saw on the screen was not the actual game clock. It was an ESPN clock that they use to clone the official clock. We discussed it on McGriff.
