Rmwttm NFHS rules. Offense is hustling to the line. Defense subs and player runs off late. Offense false starts while defense has 12 men on field. Is this a false start on offense? Or do we have offsetting penalties?
SC Official A false start is a dead ball foul. Illegal substitution (in this case) is a live ball foul. The false start means that the play never began, so the illegal substitution never happened.
