Was there a full moon tonight?

[Welpe]

Here's one that happened tonight:

Home team scores a touchdown and lines up to kick the extra point. The snap is bad, the holder jumps up and grabs the ball and runs into the pile to try and score. A defender strips the ball in the pile and takes off. Everybody gave up except for the ball carrier and the Referee. That's the first time I've seen that in person.

Of course in FED-land, that's easy.

Dead ball in NFHS

Something was in the air last night...

We had an IW.

Under Fed rules Illegal Touching is 5 yards and loss of down.

Yes, NCAA. 5 yards from previous spot.

So did we. My LJ's first ever and my crew's first IW in 6 years (the prior 2 were by officials no longer on the crew). I took a spoonful of crap on the sideline (another benefit of wearing the magic white hat).

It was a costly one as the ball had come loose and the opposition recovered and we had to give it back to A at the spot of the fumble (which was bagged) which was at the end of a long run.

We had an odd play: QB rolls out, decides to run, as he crosses the NZ decides he's not going to make much on the play, and throws the ball away. IG and IFP on the same play!

Same enforcement.

I think I would have skipped on the IFP and went with the grounding. Of course I didn't see the play, so I am just speculating.

You can have intentional grounding of a forward pass that's illegal?

Now that I look at it again. I am going with what he is talking about. If you have a illegal forward pass, it is irrelevant whether there is a receiver in the area. I don't think you can ground an illegal forward pass.

That's exactly how ours went too. LJ had it... ball came loose after the whistle.
