I apologize in advance that I know almost nothing about NCAA rules, but here it goes anyway.

The kickoff bounces in the field of play. B tries to secure possession, but fails. In NF ball this is a muff..is it a muff under NCAA rules? If the ball then entered the EZ, would this be a new impetus (or to go NF style, a new force), and hence downing the ball in the EZ would result in a safety?
