			Slightly different scenario... 
 
15 seconds on the clock, A runs a draw and gains a first down...  They quickly get set for the next play, and with three seconds remaining, either a) A false starts, or b) B encroaches...  Penalty is marked, the clock starts on the RFP, and A doesn't get the snap off before the clock hits zero... 
 
I've been told that A would not get another snap in either case because the penalty did not happen on the last down of the period...  Rather, it happened after the last down, therefore 3-3-3 does not apply, and period is over... 
 
I'm not sure if I agree with this argument, but I can't find any holes in it...   
 
If this reasoning is valid, this would be a case where the period ends on an accepted penalty...
