I searched back as far as I could and didn't see a specific post on this topic, so here goes.
End of the first half, 2.4 seconds on the clock (I would like to avoid the tenths on the clock topic). Team A makes a 25 yard field goal. After signaling good, the clock shows 0.3 seconds.
How would you handle this?
1) End of half. No field goal takes less than 2.4 seconds.
2) Go with what the clock says.
3) If Team A is the home team, it is their clock operator and therefore we will have a kickoff. If Team B is the home team, end of half as it is obvious the home clock operator is trying to get his team a potential kickoff return.
If you choose #1, do you have a minimum time that even the shortest field goal takes? I believe a college philosophy is that no field goal should take longer than 5 seconds.
Does your answer change if this occurs in the 4th quarter?
Does the score have anything to do with your answer?
Thanks.
