Normally placed in the center, but the kicking team can ask for it to be placed somewhere else.

REPLY: Yes...the same is true for Federation except for the "or behind" the given yardline part. That "behind" part doesn't exist in Fed ball. However, anytime that a team may choose the spot between the hashes to put the ball in play, that same choice remains after an enforced penalty if the down is replayed. I know that in NCAA ball, if there's a foul by A during a try and the down is replayed, A does not have the choice of where to replay the down from. That's established by the enforcement of the penalty, right?
