The Big 12 Conference has acknowledged a clock error at the end of the Notre Dame-BYU football game, confirming that time remained on the clock when the final play concluded.
The conference’s confirmation establishes that the clock did not show the game’s actual remaining time at the end of the final play. The information provided does not specify how much time remained or explain how the error occurred.
Details about the game’s date, final score and the officials involved were not provided. The conference’s statement, as summarized, also does not say whether the clock error affected the game’s outcome or describe any further action following the admission.
The acknowledgment addresses the timing of the game’s conclusion. Without additional information, it is not possible to determine when the clock issue began, whether it was identified during the game or what procedures were considered afterward. No direct quotation from the conference was provided.
The confirmed point is limited to the clock discrepancy: the Big 12 said time remained when the final play concluded. Other circumstances surrounding the error remain unspecified.
