Momentum Rule Discussion
Last week our study group was trying to figure out the resluts of this play. We would appreciate some input from other officials as well.
B20 intercepts a pass at B's 2 yard line. His momentum carries him into the end zone. If he falls down or takes a knee the ball comes out to the 2 yard line.
1. What if he tries to escape the defenders and still gets tackled in the end zone?
2. What if he fumbles the ball and team B recovers in the end zone?
3. What if he fumbles the ball out of the end zone? Would force be a factor?
In all cases B20 never left the endzone.
