Make the previous "what if" even worse. Have the encroachment by B happen with 0.9 seconds left. Since A must be set for 1 second before the snap, they are literally unable to run another down. You explain the rule to coach of Team A.

Then can be set before the RFP and snap the ball on the whistle.

With 19 seconds remaining in the first quarter and the clock running, A70 is flagged for a false start. The penalty is administered and the game clock restarted on the ready-for-play. Clock ran out before another play was run.

We extended the period for one untimed down, but the rule seems to say that this should be done for fouls that occur "during the down". I am almost positive this is right and has been in previous case books, but I can't find it in this year's book.

Any help?

CANADIAN RULING:

There will in fact be one more play in the first quarter.
