K 4/10 R-20. K2's FG attempt is blocked at the line of scrimmage by R.

This touching is ignored.

The ball continues beyond the line of scrimmage, bounces at the R-1 and is recovered by R26 in the end-zone.
1. If the scimmage kick went into the endzone, it is a touchback and a dead ball.

2. If it was recovered by R26 in the field of play and he carried the ball into the endzone, we have a different story. It is still a live ball.

Quote:

R26 runs to the R10 where he is tackled. During the kick, R75 blocked below the waist at the R-15.
1. We have a real mess on our hands because the covering official failed to blow the play dead. Mental note: Chew out the crew member at half or end of game. Then penalize the B.B.W. as a loose ball foul, half the distance to the goal from previous spot (to the 10) and K gets a first down because the penalty took them beyond the line-to-gain. If you wanted to be really anal, you could also assess the run by R26 as a delay of game foul but I wouldn't suggest it unless you have a police escort off the field.

2. Loose ball play, previous spot enforcement (unless playing under PSK enforcement provisions).
Loose-ball play. K's ball 1/10 at the 10.
