How many of you watched the Indiana-Wisconsin game on Sunday and see what took place in the last 10 seconds? Did the officials do the right thing?
Ed Hightower, Jody Sylvester and Jim Burr officiated the game.
I believe they may have made an error. When the officials blew the play dead on the ball being out of bounds, it looked as if there was 1.something on the game clock. Under NCAA rules, I believe the officials have the ability to use the tv monitors to review the play for a "timing" error. If the clock operator was late stopping, or didn't hear the wistle over the crowd noice, they should have put the time back on the clock. I believe under NCAA rules, there is no allowance for the timers delay like there is under Federation rules. Let me know if you think otherwise. SCOTT
