Questions to ask to come up with the correct answer:
What type of play is this?
What's the basic spot on this type of play?
Did the foul occur beyond or behind the basic spot?
After the foul is enforced from the proper spot, does the ball lie behind, or beyond, the line to gain?


Answers below (highlight to read):
