Happened to us one time back in the early 90's. Field conditions were horrible -it was raining straight down, and field position was of prime importance. Team A kicked off to B, B fumbled, A recovered, scored. Team B's Coach chose to kick off to A to put the ball on their end. It worked - held them to 4th down, blocked the punt - (actually tackled the punter), scored, went for 2, made it - only scores of the entire game.
