I knew it was in there somewhere!!!

Page 77, Football Penalty

A loose-ball play is action during:

"3. A backward pass (including the snap)......."

Of course, that is also in the rules:

Page 36, Rule 2-33-1: A loose ball play is action during:
c. A backward pass (including the snap).......

I think the Federation puts in questions like that to make us dig into the rule book and find all the little nuances - that's what makes discussions like this so much fun. Though it would be nice if they got the answer correct themselves.
