  1. Fouls and Scoring Situations 31 Aug 06

  2. Our Mission: • To know what the enforcement rules are for fouls during scoring situations.

  3. Table 8-1 Lists The 5 Ways To Score • Field Goal • Successful Try • Touchdown • Safety • Forfeited Game

  4. Carry Over • We’ll only discuss the first 3 types of scoring situations tonight: • Field Goal • Successful Try • Touchdown • If there is a foul committed by the opponents of the scoring team, the penalty may be carried over to the succeeding spot. (8-2-2, 8-3-5, 8-4-3)

  5. Definitions: Succeeding Spots

  6. Philosophy: • To prevent cheap shots from occurring. • Situation #1 (MP): A1 is running for a long touchdown. Lineman B1 takes a run at a player obviously out of the play, a violation of 9-4-3b. • Ruling: Without the ability to carry over the penalty, he would essentially be getting a free shot. Therefore, we would carry over that penalty to the succeeding spot.

  7. Successful Field Goal: • R fouls, field goal is good • K has the following options: • Take the points off the board and enforce the penalty with our regular enforcement • Keep the points, carry the penalty over to the kickoff • Philosophy: either way, R’s foul is penalized

  8. Successful try: • B fouls, try (1 or 2 points) is good: • A has the following options: • Take the point(s), carry the penalty over to the kickoff • Replay the try (go for 2) with the yardage assessed

  9. Successful try: • A fouls, try (1 or 2 points) is good: • B has the following options: • Assess the penalty and replay the down, unless there is a loss of down foul • If loss of down, there is no score and no replay (and no change in the usual kickoff) 8-3-4

  10. Touchdown • This is the complicated situation • Why? • It is possible to have a change of possession prior to a touchdown • Here’s the thought process: • If there was no change in possession, we have the usual carry-over option—accept the foul (rare) with normal enforcement, or keep the touchdown and carry over the enforcement to the try • If there was a change in possession, we have to know when the foul occurred

  11. Touchdown • What’s the idea behind this? • Again, it’s the free shot philosophy • Situation #2 • A 1/10 @ A-20 • A illegal motion at the snap • A1 throws a forward pass that is intercepted by B1 who runs for a touchdown • Ruling: A’s motion foul must be declined for B to keep the touchdown • Philosophy: A obviously is not getting away with anything by the illegal motion. • Key is when the foul by A occurs

  12. Touchdown • On a change of possession, the foul by the opponents must occur after the change of possession for it to be a carry over • Situation #3 • A 1/10 @ A-20 • A1 throws a forward pass that is intercepted by B1 • During B1’s run for a touchdown, A2 grabs and twists B1’s facemask • Ruling: This foul occurred after the change of possession, so it can be carried over • What’s the idea behind this? • Again, it’s the free shot philosophy

  13. Re-cap: • If there is a foul by R during a successful try or field goal, K can either keep the points and put the penalty onto the succeeding spot or he can replay the down. • If there is a foul on a touchdown, then we have to know that the foul occurred after the change of possession in order for it to be carried over.

  14. Situation #4 (8.2.2A): • During (a) A9's run for a touchdown, or (b) K1's successful field goal, B2 holds A1. • RULING: In (a), the touchdown counts. A will likely choose to have the penalty enforced from the succeeding spot. • In (b), K may keep the points and have the penalty enforced from the succeeding spot, or have the penalty enforced from the previous spot and replay the down. (8-4-3)

  15. Situation #5 (8.3.2C) : • During a try, A1 passes complete to A2 in the end zone and: (a) ineligible A3 was illegally beyond the neutral zone; or (b) A4 interfered with B1; or (c) B2 interfered with A2. • RULING: In (a), if the 5-yard penalty is accepted, the try will be repeated. • In (b), the loss of down foul by A4 dictates that no points are scored, and there is no replay. • In (c), A undoubtedly will accept the result of the play and enforce the penalty from the succeeding spot. (7-5-10 Penalty; 7-5-12 Penalty; 8-3-4,5; 10-5-4)

  16. Situation #6 (8.3.5A): • During a kick try: (a) B1 holds and the try is successful; or (b) A1 holds and the try is successful; or (c) B1 roughs the kicker/holder and the try is unsuccessful. • RULING: In (a), A may accept the score and have the penalty enforced from the succeeding spot on the kickoff or enforce it from the previous spot and replay the down. • In (b), B undoubtedly will accept the penalty and replay. • In (c), A obviously would accept the penalty and replay. (8-3-7; 10-5-2)

  17. Situation #7 (8.3.5B): • During a successful two-point try: (a) B1 roughs the passer; or (b) B2 holds tight end A8. • RULING: In both (a) and (b), A may accept the score and have the penalty assessed from the succeeding spot.

  18. Situation #8 (8.3.5C): • During a successful two-point try, B1 is flagged for pass interference against A1. After the untimed down is over, A1 taunts B1. • RULING: A may accept the score and have the penalty enforced at the succeeding spot. However, B may accept the penalty for the dead ball foul by A, and have 15 yards marked off from the spot where the ball is placed after enforcement of B's penalty. The ball would then be free-kicked from K's 40-yard line.

  19. Situation #9 (8.4.3): • With fourth and 5 from B's 18, K1's field-goal attempt is successful. B1 roughs the kicker/holder. • RULING: K may accept the result of the play (3 points) and have the penalty enforced from the succeeding spot, or accept the penalty. If the penalty is accepted and K retains possession, it will be first and goal from R's 9-yard line. (9-4-4; 10-5-1f)

  20. Situation #10 (10.5.2A): • A leads 16-7 with little time remaining in the fourth period. A is deep in its own territory. A1 goes back to pass from his own end zone. A2 holds B1. A1's pass is intercepted and returned for a touchdown. The captain of B asks to refuse the score and penalize the holding foul which would result in a safety. In this case, B would have a chance to score a touchdown and 2-point try to win the game. • RULING: The penalty for the holding foul may be accepted or declined.

  21. Situation #11 (10.5.3C): • Third down and 12 on A's 40-yard line. A1 drops back to throw a pass. The pass is completed to A2 who scores on the run following the reception. During the down, (a) A3 holds B1 on A's 37-yard line or (b) A's coach is observed standing inbounds on B's 20-yard line.

  22. Situation #11 (10.5.3C) RULING: • In (a), If B accepts the penalty for holding by A3, the score is nullified and following enforcement it will be A's ball, third down and 25 to go on A's 27. • In (b), the score stands. Following enforcement the try will be from A's 18-yard line. (9-2-1c, 9-8-1k, 10-5-3)

  23. Situation #12 (10.5.3D): • Late in the game R is trailing by 9 points as K prepares to punt from its 4-yard line. During the kick, K2 holds R4 in the end zone. R5 returns the punt for a touchdown. • RULING: R may (a) accept the penalty, score the safety and have K free-kick from its 20-yard line; or (b) decline the penalty and accept the results of the play, which would be a touchdown. (8-2-2)

  24. Situation #13 (8.5.2D): • Fourth and 15 for A from its own 8-yard line. A1 is in punt formation and receives the snap in his end zone, but fumbles the ball. A1 quickly recovers and throws a forward pass to ineligible A2, who is also in the end zone. A2 muffs the ball and it falls incomplete. • RULING: If B accepts the penalty for A2's illegal touching, it results in a safety. If B declines the penalty for the foul by A2, the result is B's ball first and goal from A's 8-yard line. (5-1-3c; 7-5-13 Penalty; 8-5-2c; 10-5-6)

  25. Situation #14 (10.4.5I): • A2 commits an unsportsmanlike dead-ball foul: (a) following a touchdown by A1; or (b) following a successful try. • RULING: In (a), the 3-yard line is the succeeding spot and enforcement will put the ball on B's 18-yard line for the try. In (b), the succeeding spot is the kickoff. • COMMENT: If the try had been the last play of the game and the score was tied, the succeeding spot for enforcement of the penalty for the foul by A2 would be the start of the overtime procedure. If an overtime is not authorized, the foul cannot be penalized because there would be no succeeding spot. (2-15; 2-41)

  26. Our Mission: • To know what the enforcement rules are for fouls during scoring situations.
