A few years ago this acutally happened in a game. I think it shows an unfair situation.
Team A was sweeping wide for a 25 yd TD run. As A1 neared the goal line near the sideline, B1 takes the ball from him at the 2 yd. line. They were both in full stride at the time and both players crossed the goal line and went immediately out of bounds. B1 was real happy, but happiness soon turned to confusion and anger when they learned that a safety had just happened. Yes,A got 2 and B had to kick off to them. It, was better to hold them to 2 instead of 6 but I came to believe the momentum rule should be changed to accomodate this kind of play. What do you think?
