As has been posted in this thread & elsewhere a number of times - by bulletin the ncaa expects their officials to fix the clock, period. Even if definitive knowledge is not available. Fix. The. Clock. And no do-overs.

The duke/clemson crew got it wrong (not a negative comment btw, I've gotten more wrong in 1 week than these 3 guys get wrong in 1 season) and the ACC commented publicly on that fact.
