Rules

  1. HT has possession of the ball to start an OT period. The HT HC asks for the ball to be placed on the left hash mark. After the RFP, and as the HT comes to the LOS, the HT HC looks at the defense and calls time out. After the time out, he asks for the ball to be moved to the center of the field. The U declines the request.

  2. HT has possession of the ball to start an OT period. The HT HC asks for the ball to be placed on the left hash mark. HT A53 false starts. The HT HC then asks for the ball to be moved to the center of the field for the next play, which starts at the B25.

  3. 3/9 B12 – VT has possession of the ball in an OT period and has decided to kick a FG as HT did not score on their possession. VT A10 fumbles the snap, rises to recover and then puts his/her knee on the ground to hold for the kick. The kick is no good. The officials prepare to start the second OT period.

  4. K Free Kick from the K40YL – K’s KO is high and deep, bouncing at the A2 and hitting the pylon. A’s HC asks for the ball to be spotted on the right hash of the A20YL.

  5. A 2/7 from B41YL – A84 is running a pass pattern near the sideline and is inadvertently bumped out of bounds by B48 just before the ball leaves the passer’s hand. A84 sees the ball coming and leaps from out of bounds to catch the ball, secures the ball and lands inbounds at the B8. The covering official throws a flag for illegal participation and penalizes A 15 yards from the previous spot.

  6. 1/10 A35YL – A12 drops back to pass & is under heavy pressure. He/she eludes the rush & scrambles in his/her own backfield as the blocking breaks down. As he/she is about to go down, he/she throws a backwards pass that is caught by A73, who then throws a forward pass to A34 at the A48YL who scores a TD.

  7. 1/10 A 7YL – A14 throws a backward pass to A28. The ball is muffed into the air, where B51 swats at the ball, knocking it out of the EZ. The officials rule a safety.

Mechanics

  1. 3/12 on A35 – A87 catches a pass on the SL and is tackled by two B players very near the A47 and the first down marker. The momentum of the players continues into the OOB area. HL gets to the spot, marks the spot, stops the GC, and signals to the R that the play is first down.

  2. 3/G on B7 – The IP for the U is seven yards off the ball, varying his/her position laterally prior to each snap. From the B7, the U realizes that his/her IP places them on the goal line and adjusts their IP to one yard deep in the EZ.

Regulations

  1. Team A comes out for pregame warmup with a player wearing the #0 jersey.
