Many have said the penalty is enforced from the 30, resulting in 1st and 25 form the 20. I believe that it should be 1st and 20 from the 25. As the basic spot of a loose ball play is the previous spot. Am I missing something?

10-6 ... Unless otherwise listed in Section 4 and 5, a penalty for a foul occurring during a play is enforced from the basic spot with the exception of a foul by the offense which occurs behind the basic spot during a loose ball play or running play. This particular foul is enforced from the spot of the foul.
CT1, I didn't mean to walk on your reply, you beat me to the post.
