The ball becomes dead upon it becoming a TD does it not?
It wasn't a pass.
The offense caused it.
But it wasn't in possession of a player.
Not entirely logical though.
So if the ball is loose, crosses the goal line - impetus by the offense, and a player kicks it back out of the end zone so it goes out of bounds in front of the goal line - it isn't a touchback? And the offense retains possession? So the offense themselves could initiate the kick or push it out to keep possession?
Reward the goof?
I guess it's OK by rule.
Thanks.

I'm not well versed in NCAA rules, but this seems like an illegal kick to me.
I'm not sure how this would be enforced.
