Wow, clock didn't start for at least 2 seconds. ISU may get screwed...

This is going to be very interesting. Paige touched it and the clock stuck on 1.6 seconds for at least 3 dribbles...

No shit. What was the clock operator doing?

What will the refs do? Clearly when they review this, they will realize the clock operator didn't start it. Now, what do they put on? It's like seeing a clear facemask penalty on a reviewable play looking for another type of call...

Clearly they should put a full minute back on the clock.

The right call. Game OVER. Good job refs. That is the correct decision.

I feel for UNC, because this is like the refs missing a clear pass interference call while reviewing a play to see if a DB caught an interception. The clock operator fucked up. That led to UNC trying to call a timeout with about .5 or .6 left. Not to say that Paige saw the clock not running (IMO, he should've just shot it from half court, that's all you can do). However, his actions on the court were because of the clock operator's failure, and then the refs are allowed to go back and subjectively say the time should've run out. It's kinda BS, even though the right outcome occurred.

Right call. If you are going to do reviews, you have to review it all, not just part of it.

Eeh that's a stretch.

The whole reason for the review was for the clock. I have no issue with the way it was handled.

This is why I hate football reviews. They can completely overlook the facemask that caused the RB to fumble the ball, while they are reviewing whether the fumble was legit. Only 1 part of it can actually be overturned.

Looking ahead, Tennessee vs. UM is a real contrast of styles. Stokes and GRIII are going to have to match up on each other.
