Need help with a Fed rules interpretation? ( Ending a period
3.3.3 3.3.4 ) My crew has been hashing and rehashing the situation where you have a penalty with just a few seconds left in a quarter. Here is a play:
A has ball 2nd & 12 at Bs 30 as the clock is running at :12 seconds left in the half. B encroaches with :03 seconds left. We mark off five to Bs 25 and now have 2nd and 7 with :03 seconds in the half. At any other time during the game we wind the clock at the ready. Now if A isnt ready to snap it, time is going to run out. Does an untimed down apply here? Does the burden rest on A to get the snap off?
