Uncle Ernie's May Quiz

[James Neil]

Uncle Ernie ought to be writing the NFHS exam cause his questions are clearer than those **** test questions!

If team B commits a live-ball PF, we wouldn't know if the kick was good or not yet, right?

Anyway, it's not always a PSK foul. If the kick were no good, it would be a PSK foul, right? If the kick is good, we don't have PSK but K would have the option of accepting the points and having the penalty enforced on the kickoff for an utimed down or of replaying the down after enforcement.

Here’s how I looked at this play.

A 4/4 B15. “Team kicks a field goal during the last timed down of the 4th quarter“
UE says “Team A kicks a field goal“. If it was no good then it wouldn't be a field goal . If so that leaves A still in possession of the ball to free kick for the next down. No PSK will apply.
So this would make 10-10 with no time on the clock. Now because we have a foul by B during the down, A has the option of accepting the penalty and taking another shot at the EZ from the B-7.5 with one un-timed down. Or they can keep the points and have the penalty for B’s foul administered from the succeeding spot to begin over-time play. (New rule)
