Two point conversion question


Recommended Posts

Let's say that you go for 2, score, but are called for holding. Does the 2 point conversion then go back to the 12 yard line?

After the holding is called, can you then decide to go for one(1) ? If you are then allowed to go for one, does the line of scrimmage now become the 35 instead of the 25 ?

I searched & didn't see this topic addressed.

FOULS COMMITTED DURING TRY

Article 3 Fouls Committed During Try

Item 1: Fouls Before the Signal. If there is a foul by either team after a touchdown and before the ready-for-play signal,

it is enforced on the next kickoff.

A.R. 11.5 Offensive player A1 clips after runner A2 had scored a touchdown.

Ruling: Penalty is enforced from the succeeding spot which is the spot of the next kickoff. Penalty is not enforced on Try.

Item 2: Fouls Before the Snap. If there is a foul by the offense which causes a play to be whistled dead prior to the

snap, it shall be treated the same as if it had occurred prior to a scrimmage play. The whistle shall be blown

immediately. (See 7-4-1). If a foul by the defense prevents the attempt of a Try, the offensive team has the option

to have the distance penalty assessed on the next Try or on the ensuing kickoff.

Item 3: Fouls by Team A. The following applies if there is a foul by Team A:

(a) If there is a foul by the offense during a successful Try, after the penalty the Try shall be repeated, unless the

penalty for the foul results in a loss of down.

(b) If the penalty for a foul results in a loss of down, the Try is unsuccessful, and there shall be no replay.

Item 4: Fouls by Team B. The following applies if there is a foul by Team B:

(a) If the foul results in a safety, the offensive team is awarded one point.

(b) If the attempted Try is unsuccessful, the offensive team may accept or decline the distance penalty before the

down is replayed.

© If the attempted Try is successful, all fouls committed by the defense will result in the distance penalty being

assessed on the ensuing kickoff, unless the offensive team chooses to attempt a retry after enforcement of the

penalty.

Note: If the foul is for defensive pass interference, and it is declined, no distance penalty is enforced on the kickoff.

Item 5: Fouls by Both Teams. If there are fouls by both teams during a Try, the Try must be replayed (14-5-1). Normal

enforcement rules for double fouls apply.

Item 6: Fouls After a Try. If there is a foul by either team after a Try, it is enforced on the succeeding kickoff. If there are

fouls by both teams, normal enforcement rules apply.

A.R. 11.6 During a Try which is unsuccessful, defensive B1 is offside.

Ruling: Replay at previous spot or one yard line.

A.R. 11.7 During a Try which is successful, defensive B1 is offside.

Ruling: Try good and loss of yardage on kickoff against Team B, or retry from B’s one-yard line.
