My ruling is that this is PSK and it will be B's ball 1st and 10 at the B 1.5

I would exactly go with JasonTX's decision.

10-2-2e Exception 3e says: "When Team A does not have possession of the ball when the down ends."

Here's a dumb question:

If A accepts the penalty wouldn't B retain the ball?

Decline the penalty and get the ball back.

If A declines the penalty then B will invoke the illegal touching and take the ball where team A illegally touched the ball at the B-8.
