Re: Re: Did anything change?
Incorrect Rut. The rule says to start on the snap when a new series is awarded after a legal kick. Otherwise we start on the ready. Here we do not have a new series. Start on the ready. [/B][/QUOTE]
I respectfully disagree. Paraphrasing from the Fundamental Statements section of the Rule Book, "If R touches a scrimmage kick beyond the LOS, it will be a 1st down for the team in posession when the down ends." K/A is awarded a new series, therefore start on the snap since the previous play was a legal kick.
Anytime a team gets a 1st down, they are awarded a new series (of 4 downs).
