Case play 98 explicitly verifies what you're saying, but it doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me logically. If I'm not mistaken, the clock doesn't count down a second until a second has completed, right? Otherwise the clock would immediately go to 23 when it's started. So that would mean that one second has elapsed when the clock goes to 23, two have elapsed when it goes to 22, etc. That would mean that the moment the clock reads 16, eight seconds have elapsed. On the same token, NCAAM officials are looking for continued BC status when the shot clock says 25 (as opposed to 24), right?
