This foul happened during a running play that ended at the goal line. The foul happended behind the end of the run so the penalty is enforced from the spot of the foul (ABO). This not only includes the yard line, but also relation to the sideline. Go to the flag and mark off 10 yards. This leaves you in the side zone. Then read rule 4-3-5:
When the ball becomes dead in a side zone or is awarded to a team there or is left there by a penalty, play is resumed at the nearest hash mark.
It's usually acceptable for the U to march off this penalty at the hash rather than the side zone.
I'm surprised by how many officials don't realize previous spot and spot of the foul don't include both the yard line and relation to the sideline/hash.
