Sideline Interference
« on: September 13, 2019, 01:57:38 PM »
Team B has received a Sideline Warning previously in the game.

1st and 10 at the 50.  A10 hands the ball to back A22 who runs down the sideline toward his team's sideline and stays inbounds and runs for a TD.  The H drops a flag for the coaches being in the restricted area.  3:00 minutes remain in the 1st Qtr.  Penalty Options?

5 yard penalty, enforced as a dead ball foul. Team A can have a try from the B-1.5, or kickoff from the A-40.

Or Team A could decline the penalty.   :sTiR:

It’s unclear on which team the sideline interference is on.

The visiting team.  That's the side the H is on.  They are Team B in this play.

  10-2-5-c provides another option does it not?

Absolutely.  This can be enforced on the Try, or on the Kickoff (or declined  8]). 
99.9% of the time, 10-2-5-c fouls will be enforced on the Kickoff.  But, I had one two weeks ago where the coach consciously (well, I think he was conscious) elected to enforce it on the Try.  On the Try?  Yes.  Are you sure? Yes.  Well, OK.

But, it would have been more clear to state that Team B received a second (or more) sideline interference foul.  Not every NCAA team uses the pressbox side as their bench side (Hawaii, Arizona come to mind immediately).  And, in NCAA, the H is on the pressbox side in the first half, which might be the home team, or might be the visiting team.  Even in Texas (UIL) football, if using a crew of 7, the H & L start on the pressbox side, then swap at halftime (new for 2019).  I don't know of any UIL teams that use the side opposite the pressbox for their bench side, but I'm not gonna claim 100% use the pressbox side.

You’re correct. I just had it stuck in my mind that only 15 yarders carried over. Thanks.
