I say that #61 is False and #85 is True. However we are having a meeting tonight where we will get information from the state as to the answer they want to see.

The answers, according to my state (presumably the NFHS, then) are

#61: False
#85: True

Had I read the disclaimer at the top of the test, I'd have gotten #85 right. #61 is, as we said, kinda odd.

And I don't know why they threw out question #3 (at least my state did). The rule clearly says the 3-yard (PAT) line is a minimum of 24 inches wide, not 48.

once again, sorry for buggin with NFL questions but I guess I just read that an eligible receiver who goes out of bounds voluntarily becomes ineligible untill the pass is touched by an eligible receiver. Am I wrong?

Not a bad question.

Wrong place for it, though.

NFL Rule 8, Article 3 (b): "An eligible receiver becomes ineligible if he goes out of bounds (prior to or during a pass) and remains ineligible until an eligible receiver or any defensive player touches the pass."

If he's forced out illegally, he's eligible as soon as he returns inbounds.

But, again, wrong thread for the question.

PS - Amazon sells the Official Rules of the NFL if you're really interested.

Thanks, Over, and sorry again for asking 'bout NFL here. And I've got the book from last season. It's the only rulebook I'm able to get down here in Brasil, sadly
