Yep - here it is, page 75. It says that if the penalty is declined, touchback as an illegal kick cannot score a FG. I guess if they accept the penalty, it's 15 yards and replay the down.

Great answer (and correct). Most of the people that are asked about this play get it wrong.
The Referee in this game offered them the oppurtunity to decline and take the TB, which they did. My previous post should have been a hint as to what happened when I said it was a "tough sell" to team K.
