Does anyone else see a mistake in Rule 10 on this play
This play happened in a HS game last week
We have 1st and 10 at the 40 going out. Team A snaps the ball and the QB he runs around and then is tackled at the 20, but during the tackle we have a Personal Foul - 15 yard face mask. The foul occurred on a running play.
So we have a B foul behind the basic spot and the end of the run is behind the basic spot .
If we use Table 10 – that would tell me that the penalty is enforced from the Previous spot, so we would go all the way back to the 40 and penalize B 15 yards??!!
Seems like is a major mistake on the NFHS rules committee, Maybe they will change it next year.
What's everyone's thoughts on this?
