Sometimes you can only hope the game ends at the end of the field closest to your car. Yes, A gets the untimed down even though it doesn't seem quite fair to B. It is, however, an accepted penalty on the last timed down of a period. It does put B in a weird situation by keeping A from winning but giving them another chance. We have discussed this play at our meetings in Calif. The mechanic we adopted is 1)Run the play, 2)Blow the whistle 3)Run away fast!
