Sorry Fellas.
I must admit, I posted this because I too have some convictions about this scenario. However, I do believe the rules support the right for A to free kick. Even though they just gained a ton of yards and for all intensive purposes they had their first down on their own merit. But that facemask penalty allows them to REPLAY the down that they just gained a mile on. And they now have an opportunity to free kick a FG to win the game. Just doesn't seem right, but alot of things in life are that way.
BTW, I just threw the illegal formation thing in there to make sure I understood that on free kicks the 9 yard marks don't matter.
Great discussion though. Good stuff!!!
