Like has been stated a couple times, if you as the receivers accept the result of the play then it would be the kicking teams ball. If you did do that then would would really be looked at as deserving to lose the game as only an idiot would accept the play in that situation.

The only other way this would be different is if during the down, from the time your player touches the kick and thereafter, if there is a foul by any one of your players, then you could not take the ball back at the point of first touching by K. (rule 6-2-5)
