Illegal Sub on a TD
A's ball 1st and 10 on B's 30. B25 is trying to get off the field but is not able to prior to the snap. B25 has just been replaced by B33. A snaps the ball and runs it for a TD.

We have Illegal sub here. But can A choose to take this penalty on the Kickoff?

I'm thinking yes. Happy to hear any thoughts on this one.

CANADIAN RULING:

No; A has to choose between the TD and applying the penalty from PLS.

In this example does A have the option to choose between taking the penalty for either the extra point or Kick-off? In the original post I thought the succeeding spot after the touchdown would be the try for extra point?

NFHS: New rule change.8-2-2 "When there is a foul by the opponent of the team scoring a touchdown, an enforcement option has been added. The offended team can accept the result of the play; choose to have the penalty enforced on the try; or choose to have the penalty enforcement on the free kick." Sounds like your situation meets this criteria.

I think the new rules applies to fouls that occur during the down, not the ones the occur with the snap.
