Team A is trailing by 5 points with :02 to go in the fourth quarter. They have the ball on B's 20 yard line and throw a pass to A1 as time expires. He cathches the ball on the 6 yard line and as he is being tackled, around the 5 yard line, he "fumbles" the ball into the end zone. His teammate A2 falls on the ball in the end zone.

One thing I'd be careful, is to use judgement on this play, we don't know what "fumbles" mean, I think most people are taking it that the player threw the ball foward. But if he legitimately fumbled it then the play is perfectly legal. We do not go back to the spot of the fumble like NFL or NCAA.
