Play Scenario
A 3/10 B-32. A1 throws a pass that is intercepted in the back of the end zone by B22. As B22 is running around the trying to escape, B55 is flagged for holding at the B-14. B22 takes a knee in the endzone.

B 1/10 B-7 SNAP PC :25 The result of the play is a TB. The intercepting team fouls after the change of Team possession. The basic spot is the succeeding spot (B-20). The Team in possession fouls behind the basic spot so we will enforce from the spot of the foul half the distance. [8.6.1, 9.3.3.b, 10.2.2.d.2.a]
