Under NCAA rules, you can't ignore the time-out request here---you must grant it and call the T. NF rules may be different.

Rule 5-12. Excessive Timeout
Art. 1. Timeouts in excess of the allotted number may be requested and shall be granted at the expense of an indirect technical foul charged to the offending team for each taken.

The use of the word "shall" ("...shall be granted...") indicates to me that the officials must grant the request if made.
