Title: Extra Period Enforcement
Post by: TXMike on June 13, 2016, 07:26:21 PM: Bottom of the 1st extra period, score is still tied. Team B blocks a PAT attempt and is running for an apparent TD. Team B coaches and ~~players~~ subs run from the team area towards the goal line but off the field of play as the ball is returned for apparent score. Officials flag them for this Unsportsmanlike Conduct. RULING?

If they interfere, I'd call it a live-ball USC foul. The score is cancelled and the 15-yard penalty is enforced from the succeeding spot.

Thanks for catching the mistake. Fixed my answer.

I'm invoking rule 9-2-3-c as instructed in 4-2-1-II, just calling the foul a USC to have it count against the 2-USC limit.
