Clock status after illegal forward pass.
Fed Rules:
3rd and 5 on B's 10 yard line. The score is A=6, B=7 in the 4th quarter. The game clock is running with four seconds remaining at the snap. QB A11 receives the snap in shotgun formation. A11 spikes the ball forward into the ground to save time. There are 2 seconds remaining when the ball hits the ground. After enforcing the intentional grounding penalty at B's 15 yardline, when does the clock start? |

maybe someone can correct me if i'm wrong. i read somewhere that to determine the status of the clock, you go by the previous play. if it was running, you run it before snap, otherwise wait until after snap?

I believe it would depend on what the Referee wants to do. The Referee could start the clock on the ready according to 3-4-6. This is a classic situation where the Referee could do just that.

Canadian Ruling

CANADIAN RULING: The passer spiking the ball doesn't meet either of the deliberate grounding criterion, so the play results in an incomplete pass. Result: 3D/5 @ B-10. Since we're inside the 3-minute warning, clock on the snap.

This was a trick by my high school coach (but the opposite). If we were ahead, we would let the play clock run down (while the game clock was running) and false start. Refs that were not wise as to what was going on would run the clock on the ready and we would eat up the clock and win the game.
However, some refs would start it on the snap, thus negating our plan. |
