My ruling:
a) I've got deadball, offsides by B. Assuming that the contact on the QB was non-flagrant. 5yd penalty. A 4/5 @ B25
b) Deadball, offsides by B AND a 5 yard facemask penalty, again assuming that the contact was non-flagrant. A 4/inches @ B20 or A 1/10 @ B20 depending on the spot.

JMN - "Offside" can NEVER occur under Federation Rules!
Encroachment is the proper penalty under federation rules! Offside is a live ball foul by the defense under NCAA rules only. Neither the word "offside" nor "offsides" appear in any NFHS publications, (exception, under signal 18 on page 80 of the 2003 rules for you trivia buffs.)
While I would never support carrying a rule book on the field during a game, I think you and cmatthews should consider doing a little post season rules reading and study group activity!

And you should consult the previous posts for correct spelling....Aside from semantics, which I agree I misspoke, what is the discernable difference between Dead Ball USC and Dead Ball Personal foul penalties and enforcements??
