Did the refs signal for the clock to stop? Don't the refs keep the official clock on the field at that point in the game?


One signaled to stop the clock and the other signaled to wind the clock. Butch was apparently told the clock would stop, and it didn't.

Link to the video available? I'd like to see this incompetence.

I'm not doubting it.

Not trying to start a pissing contest with you, but I think the clock was signaled to stop b/c it was a first down. Once the chains were set the clock was started. So while the ref did signal for the clock to stop it was for a first down, not out of bounds. I think that might have caused the confusion either on the ref's part in explaining it to Butch or in Butch's understanding of what the ref was saying.
