NCAA Illegal Formation on Scrimmage Kick
I was at the WSU/UCLA game yesterday and saw something I hadn't seen before.
WSU 4th at 8. At the snap a flag is thrown. WSU punts and UCLA fields the ball and is immediately tackled. The call was illegal formation. The enforcement was 5 yards from the end of kick/return.
Doesn't a foul by K have to be declined to keep the ball? Why not 5 yards from the previous spot and rekick? Is this something new this season?
