PF (Facemask) Behind LOS

[Curious]

Just trying to learn...

Watching Toledo/BG game tonight.  A1 is tackled by the facemask after a 5 yard loss.  Penalty was enforced from previous spot.  I know it's an auto 1st down; but is it the correct NCAA enforcement spot?

In HS, enforcement would be from end of the run - repeat the down.

Ncaa. On this foul if it is by B and run ends behind prev spot, enf from prev spot

A teachable moment

NCAA, 10-2-2-d:  The following are basic spots for the various categories of plays:
1.  Running plays. 
 (a) Previous spot, when the related run ends behind the neutral zone.
 (b) End of the related run, when the related run ends beyond the neutral zone.
 (c) End of the related run, on running plays that have no neutral zone.

NCAA, 10-2-2-c:  The Three-and-One Principle (Rule 2-33) is as follows: 
1.  When the team in possession commits a foul behind the basic spot, the penalty is enforced at the spot of the foul.
2.  When the team in possession commits a foul beyond the basic spot, the penalty is enforced at the basic spot.
3.  When the team not in possession commits a foul either behind or beyond the basic spot, the penalty is enforced at the basic spot.
