Florida vs. South Carolina game starts with shot clock issues
Florida and South Carolina got off to a rocky start in Madison Square Garden on Sunday, and it wasn’t because of the players. The officials struggled with shot clock issues early on.
The game had to be stopped twice in the first minute of play because of shot clock issues. Players were clearly annoyed, but fans and media members weren’t too happy about it either.

NCAA considering using “One Mississippi, Two Mississippi method” in lieu of shot clock for UF-USC. Decision should come in three years.

OK folks, we’re going to have an old school shot clock. A gun will sound at the 10 second mark of every possession. #Gators #GoGamecocks

Even the shot clock can’t handle an all-SEC East Regional Final in Madison Square Garden. #Elite8

For now, it seems as though the clock issues have been fixed. Let’s hope it stays that way.
