Re: NCAA Ruling...

Safety if the foul occurs behind Team AÂ’s goal line)"]
Bob, kind of a sticky wicket this one. My disagreement stems from the fact that there was not a change of team possession on the play, so the end of the run is the A12. Rule 2-25-10c states "The basic spot on running plays that occur when there is no neutral zone (interception runbacks, kick runbacks, FUMBLE ADVANCES, etc.) is the spot where the related run ends, and fouls by the offensive team...." This is repeated in Rule 10-2-3.

So with that, I would suggest we have A 1/10 @ A27 (auto first down if they didn't make the line to gain).

This one threw me, too. Does this make sense?
