The penalty didn't prevent them from getting off another play. Under these rules, running clock means just that: running clock. If they wanted another play in (A), they could have declined the penalty. In (B), the team is at the mercy of the clock, just like they are at the mercy of the size of the field. While I agree the rules may be flawed, if this is what they are, the game is over.

The rule change simply needs to be "the last 2 minutes of the 4th quarter shall be timed as under NCAA rules," possibly adding "only if the score is within 10 or 16 points."
