Anyone with more than one clock in the kitchen can sympathize with the confusion at the end of Tuesday night?s men?s basketball game between Michigan State and the Badgers. Of course, the stakes were a bit higher at the Kohl Center than when you?re trying to hit the sweet spot getting a pizza out of the oven. Apparently the officials had no choice but to go with the clock that showed time had run out just prior to Ryan Evans? improbable bank shot that would have tied the game for Wisconsin. According to another ? unofficial ? clock, Evans got the shot off in time. In the end, it didn?t matter. The official clock said Wisconsin lost, and that was that.
