I don't believe Ohio has adopted the 40/25 sec play clock (I could be wrong). Under normal Fed rules, the clock would start when the referee blows the ready for play.

Sorry. I was speaking for those states have adopted the 40/25 clock.

What does that have to do with this play? It appears the clock was supposed to run on the RFP, the type of play clock is not a factor if we are talking about only a second or two.

It has alot to do with this play. With the 40/25 as soon as the ball is placed after a first down the game clock starts, there is no RFP.
