Question

Here is a tricky one. Under the rules (I forget the actual one, but the one about numbering at the snap) it states that 2 players with the same number can't be involved in the same down. Now if somehow both #12 players get an USC and you record it in your book, and you realize that is 2 on #12, you eject number 12. Then the coach comes running out saying that each one of his #12s committed 1 usc, you look around to the other officials, they shrug; then you glance at the sideline where lo and behold 2 number 12s are standing next to each other. Since they are both about the same height and build it is impossible to determine which commited which foul.

WHAT DO YOU DO?
