If so, in NCAA, if the penalty is accepted, then yes, there is an untimed down. It wouldn't make much sense to decline the penalty.

They are referring to FED rules. In NCAA rules, there cannot be an untimed down after a false start penalty - either the false start happened before the clock ran out, at which point we'd mark off the penalty and start the clock on the ready (unless A was ahead), or the false start happened after the clock ran out and didn't actually happen.
