Would have been 1, but since he fell in bounds the clock doesn't stop until the ref waves his arm. Ask South Carolina re:Auburn.

It's stupid, to me anyway, that the rule isn't different in the last minute of the game. A second can be the difference between a win and a loss, so why does it fall on the refs not being slow as hell to wave off the clock? We should be beyond having a 2+ second differential between when a play ends to when the clock stops because a ref didn't raise his arms. At least in the waning minutes of the game.
