like mcrowder said, another way to think about it is that the the second ":00" is actually the 25th second. Usually when the PC reads :25 and it's started, it immediately ticks to :24 without waiting a full second while displaying :25, therefore for a full second while displaying :00 is 25 seconds. Of course this is borderline overthinking it....
Now from a practical standpoint, our mechanic is that the official that has the PC will look at the ball when the play clock is ticking from :01 to :00. If the clock displays :00 and the ball is being snapped, then no DOG. If :00 is on the PC and the ball is still stationary, kill it.
