Annual Precision Timing thread
On this date, every year I would ask if the NCAA tournament would use 'precision timing'. Apparently they are.
So now I ask, how many instances will we see the scorers table fail to stop the clock on a made field goal in the final minute of regulation? It seems to happen every other NCAA tournament game followed by a review at the monitor. By the way, if there is a made field goal with 1:03 left in regulation and the ball is not inbounded at the 1:00 minute mark, does the clock stop? I know it does in the NBA (at the two minute mark), but I have seen instances in the NCAA where it does and sometimes it doesn't. |
The clock only stops if the field goal clears the net with 59.9 seconds or less remaining in the second half or OT.

It shouldn't be that difficult to rig a sensor in the rim to determine when the ball passes through it (pop-a-shot does it!). It also shouldn't be that difficult for that sensor to only go on when the clock reads 59.9 or less. PTS 2.0?

The company that makes these things might have the worst website I've ever seen: http://precisiontime.com

I haven't been watching that closely, but have noticed some of the officials chopping the clock like normal and not using the timing pack to start the clock. Perhaps not all the officials are familiar with their use?
