With third and 8 from A's 35, A1 takes the snap and drops back to pass to A25. A2 holds at A30 before the pass. The pass is incomplete. If B accepts the penalty where is the ball spotted and what is the down?

Foul occurs during a loose ball play (the run preceding a legal forward pass), so the basic spot is the previous spot.

The foul is by the offense and behind the basic spot, making this the "one" in the "all but one" principle. Mark from the spot of the foul and replay the down; make it 3rd and 23 from the A20.

according to NCAA rules:
1. When the run ends beyond the neutral zone, the basic enforcement
spot is the end of the related run (Exceptions: Offensive team facemask,
illegal use of hands, holding, illegal block and personal fouls,
behind the neutral zone, are enforced from the previous spot. Safety
if the foul occurs behind Team A’s goal line) (Rules 2-25-10-a and 2-
30-4) (A.R. 10-2-2-XVI, XXVIII, XXIX, XXXI and XXXII).

Pass plays—The basic enforcement spot for fouls during a legal forward
pass play is the previous spot (Rules 2-25-10-d and 2-30-1).

Enforce facemask, illegal use of hands, holding, illegal block and
personal fouls, occurring behind the neutral zone by the offensive
team from the previous spot (Exception: Safety if the foul occurs
behind Team A’s goal line).

fr-122.

Am I mistaken or is there a difference in enforcement for federation rules?
