SEC: Ruling at end of UGA-A&M game correct but officials 'failed' to notice clock stoppage

The SEC agreed that officials ruled correctly when it reviewed that time ran out in Georgia's loss against Texas A&M. But the league also admitted the officials "failed to recognize the game clock was not functioning properly" once time was stuck on 5.6 seconds left to play.

With time winding down and Texas A&M leading Georgia 63-62, guard J.J. Frazier looked up and saw the clock at 5.6 seconds left to go. Instead of pulling up for a shot, he fed forward Yante Maten in the post, who was then fouled on a shot attempt.

When play was stopped, officials noticed the clock was stuck on 5.
