trying to give cuse time to get a shot off. So why not just give them the 1.4? That way you still come off making a definitive sound decision and not an arbitrary compromise. AS a Clemson fan obviously i would rather it have been .4 but i could see it being called at 1.4 because it was so close. But .9 makes me wonder what we're doing here.

And makes me question if things like "make up calls" or "home field advantage" calls are a real things in these guys minds. Like do they actually think that way to make it even and it not just being a subconscious thing to make a questionable call and then be on a mission to find something the other team does to make it even.

The phantom foul against MAck could've been a make up call for a prior called foul b/c their guys were fouling out. Thats pretty ridiculous if thats really how these guys are thinking. Just call the game guys. If it ain't there then don't blow the whistle.

1.4 seconds or .4 seconds. Those were the options.

I could understand the 1.4 second ruling as the ref on the court could have ruled that he saw the ball hit the line and thus they needed to adjust the clock to that moment, even without concrete video evidence of it hitting the line.

I could understand the .4 second ruling as that is when the ball made the definitive bounce out of bounds.

However, I've tried to find reasoning for .9 and I can't see any supported by the video. I, at first, assumed one of two things happened:

1) Our player must've touched out of bounds and in reaching for the ball touched it around .9 seconds.

or

2) The ball must've hit some object OOB before hitting the ground (a coach, the sideline signage etc),

But clearly neither happened and instead the ACC refs made up an on-the-spot split the difference rule change.

Watched the replay of the OOB call last night

My problem is, if the clock wasn't set to 0.4

Yep.

Re: or 1.4. Those were the only options. they basically were

0.4 is the absolute minimum to catch and shoot***

The rule is .3 seconds (three tenths)

Question about phantom foul

Indeed
