What would you Call???

With 14 seconds left in the game, team A calls for a field goal. When the ball is hiked to the holders 5 seconds are left. As team A goes through the motion of kicking the ball, Team B burst through the line and stands in front of the holder, who immediately takes off towards the goal line and scores with no time left. Allow score and team A wins?

Why would this not be a score?? The ball was snapped before time ran out and team A scored a TD on the play. It doesn't matter if time runs out before he scores as long as the clock did not run out before the snap. The holder can rise and run with the ball if he wants. Unless I am missing something it is a TD for team A.

I'm gonna allow the score, but Team A only wins if they were either ahead before the play, or behind by 5 or less. If they were down by 6, then I'm gonna count the TD and give em an untimed down for a try, which if the kick for 1, or get it in the endzone for 2, then they win.
