NCAA rules state that with 0.3 on the clock or less, a team can only score on a tap.

5.4

"In any period, when the game clock displays 10ths of seconds and play
is to be resumed by a throw-in or a free throw when 3/10 (.3) of a second or less remains on the game clock, a player may not gain possession of the ball and try for a field goal. Such player can only score a field goal by means of a tap of the pass or of a missed free throw."

So... if a player doesn't tap the ball and scores, by rule the basket does not count.
