FSN best football plays

This may have been a repeat, but Fox Sports had the "Best Damn Football Plays." Two plays caught my eye:

First they had on a "wrong ball" play. We all know the story...center snaps to the side to the QB (not through the legs), QB moves toward bench with the "wrong" ball, coach holds up "correct" ball on sideline, as soon as QB is away from defenders he runs untouched for an 80 yard TD. Of course, the play was not flagged and they made no mention that this play makes such a mockery of the game and is incredibly illegal (and, please, no one try to argue that this is not illegal since the snap was a legal one).

The other play was a bit of a stumper for me. R2 fields a kickoff at his 5 yard line. At the R-15, all 11 R players come together in what looks akin to a huddle. Suddenly the "huddle" breaks and R10 comes out of the huddle with the ball, and then he runs for a TD. I can't immediately think of anything wrong with this. Under NF rules, is this a legal play?
