I know that you are supposed to bean bag the spot of an interception but can somebody explain to me why? I have tried and tried to think of the reason but can't. Does it have to do with whether or not there is a penalty before/after the interception?
Thank you. |

Bean bagging the spot of the interception is of no significance in Fed.

If you're inside the 5 it does.

inside the 5
why. please explain in more detail

momentum exception for a safety.... 8-5-2a.

Without this rule exception the play would have been a safety. |
So to bump this up, and extend it, what has to occur for the interception to occur? What has to happen for the interception to be completed, and thus bean bagged?

I think I got this one... A catch by B... In close vicinity to the GL... |

That's where I am going with it Grant.

I feel like you guys are getting at something different and this is a trick question. Please fill me in :D |
I would agree with you Kirby.

What if this same B player jumped straight up at the 2yd. line, made the interception, and before he could make contact with the ground, an A player pushed him over the GL into the endzone, and there he first made contact with the ground and then the ball became dead?
Would you still have a touchback? Would you have B's ball first down at the 2? GH |

Now for Grey Hare's example. Off the top of my head, I would say go with the two yard line. Kind of like forward progress. I will have to get to the books and check it out though. |
