MORGANTOWN, W.Va. — In an unusual scene, the second half of Saturday’s West Virginia-Oklahoma game was delayed several minutes as game officials tried to sort out what happened at the end of the first half.
Due to a timer error, it turned out the basket that Oklahoma appeared to have scored 1.6 seconds before halftime took place after the buzzer should have sounded — which it never did, leaving the Mountaineer mascot to shrug his shoulders in confusion before firing a freelance shot into the air.
Two Oklahoma points were taken off the scoreboard.
