A QB in position to take the snap behind the C can be called for a false start penalty.
Three Fouls on One Play
NCAA Situation
After the snapper touches the ball, an offensive guard commits a false start by coming out of his three-point stance. In reaction, the defensive player opposite him jumps across the neutral zone and slugs the guard, who in turn slugs the defenders. Officials drop flags for all three fouls. What happens?
Third and five at the defensive team's 30. The defense has no more timeouts remaining. The clock is running as the offensive team breaks the huddle and lines up with several split receivers. A linebacker, confused by the offensive formation, requests a timeout from the Head Linesman. The Head Linesman signals timeout, stopping the clock.
The QB takes the snap under C, steps back to the 37, and throws a long pass to the sideline to a HB who is on the 38. The ball hits the back's shoulder pads and bounces forward to the 36. The back picks up the ball and throws it to a wide receiver 15 yards downfield.
Situation: While an offensive player runs for a TD, a defender is flagged for grabbing the runner's facemask.
Which is true about the offensive team's choice?
(A) The penalty must be enforced on a EP try.
(B) The penalty must be enforced on the kickoff.
(C) The penalty may be enforced on the try or the kickoff as the offended team wishes.
(A) reviewable in both NFL and NCAA,
(B) reviewable in NFL but not NCAA,
(C) reviewable in NCAA but not NFL, or
(D) not reviewable in either NFL or NCAA.
Whether a loose ball was recovered in or out of bounds
Pass interference
Whether the "tuck rule" applies to a fumble by the QB in the act of passing
The following situation occurred in the LSU-Florida game 10/8/11.
Situation: LSU faces 4th and 5 at the Florida 42. Just before the play clock expires, LSU calls timeout to decide whether to go for it. After the timeout, LSU decides to punt.
May LSU trade back its timeout and take the delay of game penalty instead?
The following situation occurred in the Saints-Panthers game 10/9/11.
Situation: With less than a minute to play and Carolina trailing 30-27, Cam Newton throws a pass to Legedu Naanee, who makes a diving catch at the New Orleans 45 for a first down. The Panthers call their second timeout of the half to stop the clock. The replay official reviews the play and reverses the call on the field, saying that Naanee did not control the ball as he hit the ground.
May the Panthers get their timeout back since the clock would have stopped if the pass had originally been ruled incomplete?
