Bizarre ending. I'll withhold comment for now. Lots of "learning moments" in this clip.

Strange things happen in the eastern New Mexico desert. Maybe the aliens wanted to call a ball game.
-
I guess the fed has different rules for what constitutes a snap.
-
The aliens apparently are unable to run, Cowman.
Jim, encroachment by the defense is a dead ball foul in NF.

...and there is no such thing as "offsides", either. Someone please tell that to the writer. :!#

Over looking the fact that if you are calling the encroachments the clock should have never moved.
-
This type of tactic (swiping at the ball during the snap) is now codified as ENC as of 2017. So, thankfully, this should never happen again.

Could have easily classified this as an unfair act even last year for repeated intentional encroachments. Hit them for 15 a few times and if they still continue... ^good

I particularly enjoyed the Umpires DPI flag. Good get.

Umpire Throws DPI?
I'm sorry, might have been the best call in the history of football, but, that is a wave off.
I particularly enjoyed that extra hustle by the H it being a tight contest an all. Kinda makes you wonder what kind of hustle you get from this guy in a 55-0 running clock blowout.

Thank you KWH!! That's the one thing I noticed from the whole thing. The lack of hustle made it look like none of these officials wanted to be there.
Not sure what any of you would have done in this situation, but after the second time the Goddard DL swiped at the ball under center, I would have invoked rule 9-10-5. Inform the Goddard HC that if they did that again, they would be assessed 5-yard penalty and I wind the clock without chopping, GAME OVER!

I have spent a lot of time as an umpire. I have never seen anyone successfully swipe the snap unless one of 3 things have happened. 1. Encroachment by the D. 2. False start by the O. 3. Snap infraction.
I am glad the Fed added the encroachment rule for swiping at the snap.
-
I was just reading the Fed casebook about this play. It says repeated attempts to swipe at the snap are to be penalized as UNS.
-
Under NCAA rules, trying to swipe at the ball would do no good. By Rule 2-23-f, Team B is not permitted to touch the ball until it has been snapped, which means it leaves the snapper's hand(s). If B is attempting to swat the ball out of the snapper's hand(s), and they contact the ball, the ball remains dead, and B's illegal interference is penalized for delay of game - THE FIRST TIME. After the first time, with appropriate notification (warning) to the Team B head coach, a repeat of such illegal interference would allow the R to invoke 9-2-3-c, and take any action he believes is equitable. I'd penalize 15 yards, with a first down, set the play clock to 40, and start both clocks on the RFP. For infractions after that, you 'could' forfeit the game, but I'd probably just keep penalizing and winding. The game clock will eventually run out, and B couldn't stop it.
Also, I wouldn't get too picky about whether B contacted the ball, or just the snapper's arms. Don't let him interfere with the snap.

So, under ncaa rules we could conclude that team B is not able to interfere with the snap? unless the defensive player contact the snapper frame.
-
I think what you are asking is, once the ball starts moving for the snap, if a team B player could react quickly enough to charge into the snapper before the ball leaves his hand, is that a foul. The answer is: no foul.
If it happens, get video. Never seen it. Any snapper that slow wouldn't last more than one snap - even in practice.
-
I saw a B-10 penalty where a def lineman hit the center soon after the snap. He was penalized for hitting the center the center too soon ( my words ) after he snapped the ball. Was that a snap infraction?
-
My mistake. I found the rule and there is a roughing the snapper rule during punt formations.
-
and start both clocks on the RFP.
Help me out here, if this is the first play of the series (snap), and we don't get a legal snap before the foul occurred, how can we RFP under 3.4.3 or 3.4.4? I have it in my head that the clock needs to be running to invoke.

You are correct.

Of course. Sorry, I was thinking a bit more generically, i.e., the clock would have been running.

Ok, that's clear, but the rulebook says that a team B player is not able to touch the ball during the snap, though as you said, it's very hard to realize on the field if the player touches the ball or just the snapper's arm. So, my question is: Would we have to call the penalty in any way if we see the player trying to swat the snap with his hand? I know it could sound weird, but in a country where the sport is pretty new we have to be sure about rules interpretations.
Thanks!
-
No contact, no foul. But, like I said, if it looks like he's trying to swat the ball from the snapper's hand and only manages to hit the snapper's hands or forearms (not the ball), make the call.

I was trying to work it out in my head, I want to have an endgame here. First is offside, advise the coach second is UNS, third time I would like to invoke 9.2.3 and to the locker room if the team wants to make a travesty of the contest. Thoughts on that?
-
Unless there was more than 2:40 remaining, I would penalize B 15 yards, and give A a first down, DQ the guilty player(s), set the play clock to 40, and start both clocks on the RFP signal. Team A would only have to take a knee three times. Team B would would probably not want a bunch of their players DQd, so I think this would let the game end with its full duration.
If more than 2:40 to play, and if I didn't think Team B was going to stop this action, I'd forfeit the game.

With one exception (at least under NFHS code), there's no foul for trying and failing to do something. There are fouls for actually doing something.
Except for fighting/throwing a punch. Even if you miss, under Fed code, you've still fouled and get to enjoy the rest of the night - and probably more - off.
