Case Book 3.3.4 SITUATION B: The clock is running with 10 seconds remaining in the fourth period as A1 drops back about 4 yards and intentionally grounds a forward pass to stop the clock. The penalty is accepted. The referee starts the clock on the ready following penalty enforcement and time expires before A can snap the ball.
RULING: If B accepted the penalty for A’s foul, the game is over and there is no untimed down as A had an accepted penalty on the last timed down that called for loss of down.

You are absolutely right.
I stand corrected.
