Not as far as I'm concerned.....I'd say some of those in this thread agree with me.

When a foul obviously benefits the team committing the foul with respect to the clock, it's common practice to start on the snap.

A player commits a false start with a running game clock with 1 second on the play clock on 4th down with 24 seconds left in the game. Are there officials here who would even consider starting on the RFP?
