Dead Ball Penalty after 1st Down
« on: January 15, 2015, 07:20:48 AM »
Here's the game situation: Team A completes a pass for 25 yards and a 1st down at their own 40 yard line. Team A receiver receives a dead ball taunting penalty.

So, Team A is penalized 15 yards giving them a 1st and 10 on their own 25 yard line, correct?

Where can I find an explanation in the NCAA regulations that a dead ball foul after a 1st down always maintains a 1st and 10 down and distance, rather than 1st and 25 in this case?

Thanks.

The A.R.'s spell it out in more detail, if the actual rule language is not enough for your purposes.
