Talked about this on here last year -- not really a weird play as much as a weird enforcement. 1st and ten from the A20. A runner gets loose and takes it to the house, but there is a downfield illegal block in the back at around the B40, and a hold around the B30 (or vice versa on the foul location). Meanwhile, back at the line, one of B's players incidentally grabbed someone's face mask. Thus, we offset everything and went back to first down.

Had B NOT committed the foul, A would have had the ball around midfield, first and ten. Because B committed the foul, A lost 30 yards on the play! Just a quirk in the rules.
