Thee result is not a touchback and the penalty is not enforced from the 20. THe result of the play is a safety.
But people can't be two rules together and arrive at the proper ruling.  |
I usually try to break it down to the simplest form for them. In this play, the basic spot is the 20. The foul occurred in the end zone, behind the basic spot, by the team in possession. Using all-but-one, this penalty is enforced from the spot of the foul, making it a safety.
