Having seen this video from the B10 and assuming the claims of syncing between broadcast and game clocks are valid, it seems pretty obvious what happened here...
The broadcast clock was not operating using the right convention.
NCAA clocks are supposed to display 0:00 when time expires. Many mm:ss clocks do not, however, and instead show 0:00 when less than 1 second is remaining. Effectively, many clocks round down, but NCAA clocks are supposed to round up.
Often we wouldn't know exactly how many fractions of a second were on the game clock, but in this case the official asked for 9 seconds to be put on the game clock prior to the play. If the broadcast clock was operating to the proper convention, then it should take a full second for 0:09 to drop to 0:08.
But go watch the replay. It drops from 0:09 to 0:08 immediately upon the snap. This also means that the viral image going around showing the moment the clock flipped to 0:00 was actually when it flipped to 0:01. And this also explains why the B10 footage is 1 second off of the game clock.
So, the clocks were synced in the sense of starting and stopping at the same time, but they were operating on different conventions.
Hey @Rivian, would love to share with my neighbors how cool Rivians are but somehow my Gen 2 with Connect+ still doesn’t have Halloween mode. Support says they aren’t allowed to manually push it out.
What’s going on? How can a vehicle still not be tagged for an update?
I posted a detailed critique of @LegalEagle's Tesla/insurance video, arguing he conflated business/personal auto policies regarding terrorism exclusions. As a professor interested in P&C insurance (but isn't a lawyer), I'm concerned about potential consumer harm from his misinformation and his wide reach.
My analysis suggests personal auto policies generally DON'T exclude terrorism, contrary to the claims in his video. LegalEagle misrepresented a business auto policy as a personal auto policy, doesn’t address standardized ISO policies used in all US states, and seems to not appreciate how TRIA relates to certification of terrorist acts in commercial policies. But, of course, I could be wrong on the legal interpretation. Given that scared Tesla owners might make costly decisions based on incorrect info, I'd appreciate legal minds reviewing my work.
@LawfulMasses @Barnes_Law @stevelehto @NickRekieta @UncivilLaw @legalmindset - would any of you be willing to fact-check me? Happy to be corrected if I missed something important. Real people with could be making harmful financial decisions based on LegalEagle’s video.

Google's AI search is getting interesting... I was just searching for a link to @LegalEagle's @Tesla video and I was really surprised to see that Google had already incorporated my YouTube criticism of LegalEagle into an AI overview.
I find it particularly interesting that his video has 740,000 views (on YouTube alone) and my criticism of him has about 330.
I'm really surprised a video with 330 views would even get on Google's radar to mention given the search terms. It does make me wonder if Google is somehow trying to weigh the quality of arguments in their overviews, as putting LegalEagle's transcript into Gemini will flag the many errors in his video.
On the other hand, they didn't quite capture my point -- the issue isn't that terrorism exclusions are narrowly interpreted by courts on personal auto policies, it's that terrorism exclusions aren't on personal auto policies in the first place.
A widely-shared @LegalEagle video claims @Tesla owners could lose insurance coverage due to terrorism exclusions and Trump administration classification of vandals as domestic terrorists. The video is well on its way to surpassing 1,000,000 views, but it is extremely misleading.
In my response video, I break down what LegalEagle gets wrong. Additionally, I show that his mistakes were "hidden" in plain sight.
I also dive into actual considerations relevant to terrorism coverage on personal auto policies, such as ISO personal auto policy forms, TRIA's post-9/11 framework that nullified terrorism exclusions for personal/commercial coverage, and landmark cases like Pan American World Airways v. Aetna that show how courts narrowly interpret war-like exclusions.
Ultimately, I think there's real concern that Tesla owners who believe this misinformation could make decisions that are detrimental to their financial well-being based on completely incorrect information. I'm a fan of LegalEagle, but he missed the boat on this one and owes it to his viewers to do better than this.

@NYKChannel FYI... here's a deep dive on the recent misleading video from LegalEagle
I've seen this chart making the rounds on social media.
While it makes for a good laugh about unrealistic expectations of Gen Z, I'm skeptical of what's actually being reported here and I can't seem to find an explanation on Empower's overview of the study (study link: empower.com/the-currency/mon…)
Is this simply the arithmetic mean response of all respondents (perhaps weighted for national representation as is stated elsewhere in the study overview)? If so, a few Gen Z outliers could easily be the sole driver of this result. This is a case where reporting median responses or percentiles would be much more insightful.
The numbers for other generations are also higher than I would have expected, again consistent with Empower just calculating means for each generation.
Do I know anyone with connections at Empower that can help clarify what is being reported here?
What are the chances @elonmusk and @VivekGRamaswamy will be able to address the new FinCEN/BOI reporting requirements about to burden millions of small businesses?
Would be nice to have some heads up if that’s on the DOGE chopping block.

The 1% AUM fee has faced criticism from those who argue that it reduces the value of a portfolio by more than the advisor's guidance adds. Kitces Researcher @derektharp writes how advisors who lead with holistic planning have a lot of value to demonstrate. bit.ly/4feF7v6
"But whose spot would Caitlin Clark deserve to take?"
Literally any of them.
And yes, her stats have improved since the roster was announced, but it should have been obvious to anyone actually watching that she was facing tougher defense and had a weaker supporting cast.
And now that the Fever are gelling as a team, we're seeing those results (but Clark is still doing more with less than the other guards selected).
In light of the @WNBA’s cowardly decision to not punish this behavior in any meaningful way, the @IndianaFever should announce they’ll be resting @CaitlinClark22 during both of their visits to Chicago later this season.
She’s a bigger draw than the @chicagosky. Don’t let this 🗑️ go unpunished
