Facemask with a Fumble

Team A has the ball on the 50 yard line and run a sweep. During the run at Team B's 45 there is a 5 yard facemask and the run continues. The runner then is hit at Team B's 35 and fumbles. Where is the penalty enforced from.

I said the end of the run at the 35 so it would be Team A's ball at Team B's 30.

What is the basic spot? The end of the related run. The run ended at the B35 when the runner fumbled (beanbag), so yes you are correct.

Let me guess, somebody wanted to go from the flag?

No someone wanted to go from the previous spot.

Plays like this are why you beanbag fumbles.
