But look at rulesmaven's most recent post. He says that's the official wording, 16-1-4, and you can look high and low for word that a safety ends it by sudden death notwithstanding the possession business, which I'm now taking to have been rumor disconfirmed by this actual wording. In most cases a safety would win, but apparently not if the opening kickoff (original or repeated following penalty) got blown back (or had extremely wicked backspin) for a safety.
