All on K's force that put the ball in the EZ
a) touchback
b) touchdown
c) touchback
d) touchback

How did I do Bob???
REPLY: I like a), b), and c). For d), I agree that TB is the result of the play. But I assumed that R intentionally kicked the ball out of the EZ. How about that?
Bob-
Iagreee wiht your call of saftey if R did kick it out. But I was refering to the fact that K provided the force.
BTW, if R did intentionally kick it out, am I correct on the penalities:

decline: saftey
accept: 1/2 distance to GL, so R's ball 1/10 1.5?
