Play 2: The QB was in the shotgun, clock winding down in the second quarter. He gets the snap from center, and spikes it. No flag.
Different officiating crew for each game.
Can you guys help me out?

Might be one crew is more used to NCAA rules which do allow the QB to spike from a shotgun formation.
