i was watching a high school game and team "a" went for a field goal try. the ball was blocked by the defense and the ball went out of bounds through the endzone. the officials called it a safety and i couldnt believe it. i was just wondering maybe i missed something here. shouldnt this have been a touchback?

thank you

If it went OOB's thru B's endzone, it should have been a TB when it broke the plane of B's goal line. A FG is just a scrimmage kick, punts or FGs are scrimmage kicks. I cannot see a crew messing that one up. Are you sure this is exactly how it happened?
