Ball goes to B's 22 near the sideline.

A15 has his left hand touching out of bounds and his right hand on the ball in play at B's 22 but not in full control.

Meanwhile B55 picks up ball and advances to B 35.

Whose ball and where?
I notice a lot of people answering "whose", but "where" depends on the code. In NCAA, the spot would be the B 25, because the B 22 would be farther from the offense's end line.
