    The ball didn't even look like it was touched before it hit 0:00.

    @Newtons Law

    And? There is no rule stating that if the ball is airborne into expiration and it hits a player, the throwing team is awarded an add'l play.

    @TheBuddah

     They pay zero attention to the clock all game and they then decide at  .08 to add another second. Why?

    to give Michigan a chance to win at home , otherwise it’ll look really bad for ranked teams

    The defensive player from the Broncos went out of bounds and came back in and touched it with one second left. BS call but I saw the replay

    @ChitownB

      They actually threw that lie in the trash and began a new one. Their NEW reason is that all the clocks on the field and TV are actually wrong, and there is a secret ref clock that is actually .5 seconds more accurate. So when the Bronco player touch the ball there was .5 seconds on their ref clock.

     

    I am not making this up.\

    The second likely went back on for the same reason that the refs don't immediately blow the whistle when the play clock hits "0."  It takes a second (quite literally) for the second to drain to zero.

     

    There was defensive pass interference right in front of the player who touched the ball on that play.  Michigan receiver was tackled before he had a chance to jump to make an attempt.  Football justice, one more play was warranted.
