Rules questions

[JRutledge]

1. You would go half the distance to the goal on each penalty if necessary.

2. You just stated what the basics of the rule is. They cannot be on the field at the same time. Think about it this way, D1 teams can have 85 scholarships each year. With possible retired numbers and considering that most cannot be on the field at the same time with an offensive and defensive player.

shouldn't mater if there were 3, 4, or 10 if they all occurred during the return they are all live ball and you can only accept 1 of them. However the point is valid had they been dead ball. Not sure interesting question.

The receiving team's restraining line is always 10 yds. from the kicking team's, even if that puts it in their end zone. Fortunately you have that 10 yd. chain you can use as a visual aid.

Well there is one personal foul that is enforced from the succeeding spot (9-4-8) so it might matter if it takes place during a live ball.

I probably should have made that clearer, but that is a possibility to accept more than one PF during a live ball.

You can only accept 1 live ball foul weather its a PF or not, but there is the case on the scoring play where it is assessed on the kick off but still still you can only give them 1 unless you call them dead ball

That does not apply to the contacting someone in the restricted area and it is not a spot foul, it is a succeeding spot foul. If there was a PF also during a live ball, then you could have both.
