This was my game. We started it on the ready. I think it should have started it on the snap. I brought that to my referees attention, and he said no.
The question is what stopped the clock. Two things did. The first one is, Awarding of a new series for A after a legal kick, and of course the penalty.
The officials who start the clock on the ready, usually state that if the ball went OOB, and B accepts the penaly, they would start the clock on the snap.
Personally, I don't see the difference between the stopping the clock because it went out of bounds, and stopping the clock because you awarding a new series after a legal kick.
