This item in the casebook fascinates me. It goes against just about everything else in the both books, in terms of cancelling things and putting time back on the clock. Does anyone know why this one particular situattion is supposed to be treated this way? And how many refs know this exception well enough to get it right?

If they didn't cancel the field goal, but did everything else, and then B got the ball, and then the table or one ref realized it was wrong, would that be a correctible error?

I cannot help but write. "Yes, every official should know what is in the Casebook." In my humble opinion, you can cancel the field goal because this is not a correctable error.
