I really don't know what the NF is trying to point out with that statement.
So I decided to see how the NCAA defined the TRY.
A try is an opportunity for either team to score one or two poitns while the game clock is stopped and is a special interval in a game which, for purposes of penalty enforcement only, includes both a down and the "ready" period that precedes it.
(I underlined that part)
At least they say a TRY includes the time before the snap and after the snap.
Later they say that dead-ball fouls occuring after the ready-for-play and before the snap are penalized before the next snap.
A down is still the down and starts with the snap.
