NASA did say at first that some sensors showed high temps, then changed it to: all of them failed low as if the wires were cut.

I think that guy later said during the conference that he misspoke, and that what they noticed was the sudden loss of signal. No spike.

When Challenger exploded, NASA said not to speculate on the cause prior to their investigation. Ironically, the investigation, which took years, confirmed the original speculation, the O-ring.
I think that may be the case here. So far, the signs point to the tiles. We'll see.
