Muffed punt - original LOS
Team A had a bad snap and penalty during their possession that has left them with a 3rd and 35 situation.
Team A decides to quick kick on 3rd down to attempt to catch team B off guard.
Upon punting, the ball is kicked short and does not make it back to the original LOS, but a member of Team B tried to field it and muffs the catch and a member of Team A team recovers.
Which is the correct ruling?
Team A's ball at the spot of the recovery 4th down.
Team A's ball at the spot of the recovery 1st down.
