Two What Ifs I came up with

Was daydreaming at the computer today and came up with these two plays. NFHS rules

#1
Third and goal for A on B's 4 yard line with seconds left, tie game. A is out of time outs. A1 runs for a TD, but there is holding by A2 at the 4 yard line. There is :01 left. B accepts the penalty. Third and goal from the 14, when does the clock start?


#2
The clock is running A is out of time outs, A trails by 6. On third and goal A1 is downed at B's one yard line. The clock is running and A is in a no huddle offense. A2 snaps the ball with :03 left, but the referee hasn't declared the ball ready for play. What happens next?

My season is over and I'm in withdrawal!:-)

In Canada:

#1 : 3D/G on B-14. Clock on the snap.

#2 : Stop the play, no penalty. Start the clock as per usual method dictated by how previous play ended. However, in Canada, we do not have to get the snap off before the clock reads zeros. There is one more play no matter what. Agreed about the U standing over the ball on a hurry-up.
