This. Arizona had run themselves out of time-outs. OSU had not--but they sure weren't going to use one in that situation.
I'm not sure how to resolve the "check the clock" stoppage either, but I'd be surprised if that scenario isn't at least revisited by the rules committee. It was a major advantage to Arizona last night.
