For NCAA, I was only going by what another poster put and that was to allow one team to decline.

For NFL, I just checked and they will also replay the down.

For Canada, they will enforce both fouls from the point of enforcement of the first foul. Also, they will allow declination by one team.

So if the other poster was wrong about NCAA then I guess it is just the Canadian rule set that has better equity in this situation. And yes, it is slightly more complicated to enforce. It is not that bad though.

That was true at one time, apparently not now.
