Derock....the ball cannot be advanced by a fumble. If this was the case you would see guys throw the ball forward every time they got close to the sideline and were being tackled. Therefore the ball cannot be marked at the 3 where the fumble went OB. The spot would have to be the goaline. There was a post that basically said the same thing a few posts up.

Nice job getting the ejection though. Throwing a punch or kicking is an act of fighting and the penalty would be 15 yards and an ejection.

Now I'm confused?
In an earlier post, I was told/corrected that you spot the ball where the fumble goes out of bounds. Now you're saying the ball cannot be advanced by a fumble (which is what I said earlier).

Someone, anyone please clear this up for me.
