There are potential problems with any solution. I just think that it should consistently be "play on" or "fix it" or "do over."

By the same token, if at the start of OT the clock was inadvertently set to 3:00 and not discovered until just right after time ran out, would we resume the game with 1:00 minute left?
That would be a can of worms.
