Fourth and 5 on the 50 yard line. B7 muffs the punt at the B-10 yard line and it rolls toward his end zone. A26 muffs it at the B-6 yard line, then B38 accidentally kicks it at the B-4 yard line and it rolls into the end zone where A51 falls on the ball.
Fourth and goal on the B-6 yard line. On a field goal attempt, the kick is blocked by B19 at the B-7 yard line and the ball rolls out-of-bounds at the B-8 yard line. B19 had put his hand on Guard A65's shoulder to gain enough height and leverage to block the kick. Fourth and 2 on the B-45 yard line. During the punt, B12 signals for a fair catch at the B-8 yard line. He steps aside and tries to block A26 at the B-10 yard line, but misses when A26 avoids him. The punt hits the ground at the B-6 yard line and A26 shoves B32 into the ball at the B-2 yard line. The ball then rolls into the end zone where A41 recovers it. |

Touchback. Since it was still a kick (no posession gained) and all teams did was "muff" the ball back into the end zone, it is a touchback as soon as the ball crossed the goal line. 6-3-1 sit b in case book. Quote:
B-s ball on the 8. There is no foul for this in Fed ball. Least not that I can find 8-). Quote:

I agree with the second and third answers but not the first. In this case you have a muff which is a free ball. A muff can be recovered by either team but not advanced by the kicking team. Since the ball was recovered in the end zone it is a touchdown.

The ball is dead when it crosses the goal line. Touchback. |

Your ruling would be correct if the game was being played under NCAA rules.

2. Pyramiding. Half the distance to the goal, possible first down, or at least retry 4th down. 3. We don't have a fair catch rule. Our punt receiver protection rule is called the restraining zone. If the text above happened in our game, there is a No Yards foul on A26. B-1D/10 @ B-17.
