They said that Chris Leak was flagged for intentional grounding at the 39 yard line. The R announced the foul, and that it was 5 yards from the spot and LOD. Florida next snapped the ball from the 39 yard line.
Did the crew botch this? Did anyone see this play?

Your "trustworthy observers" did not observe so well. It was not Leak who threw the pass, it was WR Andre Caldwell who was supposed tothrow the pass back to Leak. An official onanother board advised he looked at the video and the pass was thrown from the 29 (previous spot was 13). He confirmed the R announced it was a 5 yard penalty from spot of foul and loss of down however they actually just enforced loss of down at spot of pass (29) From the box score:
F 1-10 S13 [shotgun/1 back], Caldwell, A. pass incomplete, PENALTY UF
intentional grounding (Caldwell, A.) 16 yards to the SC29, NO PLAY.
