It's not really called intentional grounding in the book, although it is enforced as such.
Yep, I'm aware of that.

But the punter in Wolverine's play who threw the ball out of the back of the end zone wasn't doing so to conserve time.

So I'm waiting to find out what rules code is used in a Friday night football game in Georgia that says this play is intentional grounding.
