I have read this one before and have asked a rules interpreter about it. Since a fumble occurred in the field of play and the ball went thru the EZ, the result of the play was a touchback, hence a change of possession. Enforce from the previous spot. 1st and 10 from 35.

As a referee I'm going on that enforcement if this happens in one of my games. I asked our rules interpreter to put this on our chapter test to see how everyone answers. Should create some interesting dialogue.
