What is ENZ?

The expanded neutral zone is the 6 x 8 area that appears magically with the snap of the ball for blocking purposes. Blocking below the waist and now blocking in the back are allowed in this zone. NCAA does not need this zone. Also, except for the PSK, the expanded neutral zone disintegrates once the ball leaves the zone.

What is a double foul? Is that like offseting fouls in NCAA?
|
Not having called NCAA rules I just learned something. Yes, a double foul (NFHS 2-16-2b) would be equivalent to a offsetting fouls (NCAA 10-1-4); however, NCAA handles possession changes with exceptions -- Exception is verboten for NFHS. NFHS chooses to create rule sections (10-2-1 and 10-2-2) to address the same thing.

When does a scrimmage kick begin and end?
|
A scrimmage kick begins when the ball is legally kicked with the knee, lower leg or foot and ends when a player either gains possession or the ball becomes dead while not in player possession.
Hope this helps.
