BUT, this play COULD be legal if you have 2 more players numbered 50-79 because 40 would NOT be an exception as there would be 5 ineligible players in the formation and they all could shift provided their hands were never on the ground.

NCAA:
It could be legal, provided that the center hasn't touched the ball or simulated touching the ball as THAT is what locks the players in for the numbering exception
It's a Fed game.
