Cool 10-second runoff does not solve this one!

While a 10-second runoff would resolve situations where A fouls to stop the clock, unfortunatly, it does not solve this issue!
Because, even if you were to invoke a 10-second runoff, you still have the same dilema for the captain of B:
a) Decline the penalty and A wins the game outright, or
b) Accept the penalty and give A one untimed down (So they can bring in their all state kicker and boot the winning field goal.)
