Not sure why there's the discrepancy, but I seem to remember an issue in a PC game a few seasons ago.

For some reason they decided during replay first look for the clock, then look for the LED, then listen for the horn.

Ok, all of that makes sense to me. I had it slightly messed up.
For NCAA the period ends with the red LED lights, if they are present and working, or the horn sounding if no lights.
However, when judging whether a try for goal shall count or not using the monitor, the game clock showing zero has #1 priority, then the LED lights, and finally the horn.
Now I also believe that the same would apply to deciding whether or not a foul took place prior to end of a period. Is that true?
