REPLY: MJT...I agree with your NCAA answer. That was the easier of the two rulings. But I'm not sure I agree with your Fed answer. I think it will be A's ball 1-10 from midfield. The continuity of downs has been broken once B touches the scrimmage kick beyond the NZ. It's not elegant, but even though the down didn't end, the series of downs did end once B muffed the kick. For further thought, what would you do if the same play occurred on third down?
