Thanks for that. That keeps me from starting a thread from what I saw Friday.

After a play the ball was spotted right on the line to gain (B's 45. I think). The A HC was chewing on the side judge for a measurement. Referee came over, eyeballed it and called for the chains to come out. The A HC was still jawing. R throws the flag for USC. The chains showed it was a first down, and the 15 yards was then marked off. Chains then showed 1st and 10 from the A 40. Then the B HC asked R if it shouldn't be 1st and 25 since the USC happened after the play gained a first down. R said it did not.
