VERIFIED ANSWERS) GUARANTEED PASS!
NOTE: In the exam situations, A-refers to the offensive team and B- refers to
their opponents the defensive team. K-refers to the kicking team and R-refers to the receiving team. A1, B1, K1, and R1 are players of these teams. If team possession changes during the down, each team retains its identity. In kicking situations, it is not during a try and no fair-catch signal has been given unless specified. Unless stated, acts occur while: the ball is inbounds; a forward pass is legal; any out-of-bounds is between the goal lines. Line means scrimmage line. Reference to a foul is to a player foul which is not unsportsmanlike.
