Was that the first time - in a football game - where officials "went to the monitor" and added one more second?

It happens all the time in basketball of course, but I can't think of another time it's happened in football.

Amazing that we get to be the program that completes the pass and everyone finds out about this clock issue.

- the Henne to Manningham TD PSU game had a second or two added to the clock late in the game* - By ajs September 10, 2026 at 04:48:24 PM
- CMU once beat Okie St after refs gave them an untimed down incorrectly. For some reason there wasn't as much uproar over that one.* - By mattb September 10, 2026 at 03:43:51 PM
  - that's because the underdog won* - By Ronti September 10, 2026 at 04:00:11 PM
- "please reset the game clock to __" seems fairly common, same with untimed downs off a defensive penalty, but this case seems unique* - By Daytripper September 10, 2026 at 03:40:43 PM
  - Yeah I'm specifically talking about end-of-game, last play. 2009 UT-Neb below is a good one. ** - By dnvrblue September 10, 2026 at 03:43:49 PM
  - Do they use the TV clock for that too?* - By Poster P September 10, 2026 at 03:42:29 PM
- 2009 Texas-Nebraska. Officials added one second to the clock after it hit 0:00. Texas kicked a field goal and won* - By KevinC September 10, 2026 at 03:40:19 PM
- This happens a lot in football too.* - By LS&Play September 10, 2026 at 03:39:04 PM
  - 2005 PSU is really the only one I can think of. - By dnvrblue September 10, 2026 at 03:42:59 PM
