Rule 1-1-6 says "The R has the authority to rule promptly, and in the spirit of good sportsmanship, on any situation not specifically covered in the rules. The R's decisions are final in all matters pertaining to the game."
So, if it is obvious that that is what happened, I think the above rule would qualify and you could award a "do over." You would have to be there to know how it all went down and if a "do over" was the proper thing to do.
Obviously the NFL has a similar rule if that is what they did. They are better in knowing their rules than we are at knowing ours.
