REPLY: I'll try...
  • Fumble in flight
  • Low Scrimmage kick in flight in or behind the NZ
  • Scrimmage kick in flight beyond the NZ if no receiver in vicinity
  • Pass in flight (except backward pass batted forward by passing team)
  • grounded scrimmage kick by K toward his own goal line
  • ???

Can't think of the sixth...

A ball in player possession may be batted backward by a player of the team in possession.
Reference: NFHS 9-7-4

REPLY: Agreed Kevin...I'd forgotten that. But he did say that "Six loose balls may be legally batted" We still don't have the sixth one!

You got me there Bob, but I can't tell you the sixth loose ball situation.

kdf5, I think we give up...

I have been racking my brain, and unless it is a grounded free kick which has traveled 10 yards, batted by K, or what KWH discribed above, so far you are doing a great job of stumping these chumps. kdf5, I think the onus is now on you.

Here are my answers. Bob M. combined two of my answers. I think you had them all as far as I can see, just a matter of how some are looked at:

* A fumble in flight.
* A backward pass in flight, but NOT forward by the passing team.
* A forward pass, but ONLY by players eligible to touch it.
* A low scrimmage kick which R is trying to block in or behind the expanded neutral zone.
* A scrimmage kick in flight beyond the NZ which K may bat in any direction provided there is no R player in position to catch.
* A grounded scrimmage kick beyond the NZ which K may bat backwards ONLY, towards his OWN goal line.
