PI question

In a CA high school football game, there was a defensive pass interference call on a TD pass. The TD was good and they marked 15 yards off on the ensuing kickoff. Was that the correct enforcement?

Yup, new rule from 2-3 years back. Gets rid of the "free shot" on a scoring play.

Rule 8.2.2 if you want to look it up.

That's weird when you consider the enforcement after a non-scoring play. On 3rd & 10 you complete a pass for a 25 yard gain that gets you to the 1 yard line, during the pass there was DPI, you decline the penalty because it gets you only to the 13 yard line. But if you scored on the play, you get a 2nd bite of the apple now?

You mean 8-2-2 (rules use hyphens, cases use periods):

"If an opponent of the scoring team commits a foul (other than
unsportsmanlike conduct on a nonplayer foul) during a down in which a touchdown
is scored and there was not a change in possession during the down, A
may accept the results of the play and choose enforcement of the penalty:
a. On the try, or
b. On the subsequent kickoff."

I predict that within a season or 2, Fed changes this to apply only to fouls that would otherwise have been penalized from the end of the run that resulted in the TD.

Thumbs down

And I predict that in a season or two, you'll be wrong.

I think you are thinking way too much.

You don't need to wait a season or two. He's wrong on a regular basis.

No, he means 8.2.2. He was referring to the case plays under 8.2.2.

No, he called it "Rule 8.2.2."

I predict that since there hasn't been a groundswell of support to change the new rule in the years since it was implemented that the rule will stay.

The purpose of the rule was to eliminate cheap shot fouls that had to be declined in order to score. Nuff said.

But PI is not usually a cheap shot.

But nobody cares. I haven't heard one person (until you) advocate changing the existing rule.
