Leading question of the day

(1/2) > >>

ElvisLives:
Been out of Internet range for a number of days. Try this:

Extra period number 3, from the B-3. B20 commits a pass interference foul on eligible A88 in B’s end zone (called by the F), and the ball falls incomplete.

Ruling:



(This question is intentionally leading, with this situation having happened on national TV recently.)

dammitbobby:
Unless I'm missing the intentionally leading part, this should be 1/G for A at the 2.
 
When the ball is snapped on or inside the Team B 17-yard line and outside the Team B two-yard line, and the spot of the foul is on or inside the two-yard line, the penalty from the previous spot shall place the ball at the two-yard line, first down (A.R. 7-3-8-XIV).

What type of down is being played?

dammitbobby:
Ahhh.  All plays are considered tries in the 3rd OT, it's not a regular down. So should be 1/G from the 1.5 (half the distance) ) according to 10-2-5-b.

Bingo. A game that went 5 extra periods a few days ago had a DPI in the end zone during the 3rd extra period, and they put the ball at the B-2. Only 1/2 yard difference, but that half yard can make a difference in the down.
