Oh, forgot to mention... 3rd and FIVE, incomplete... 4th and FIVE, line up for
the FG, FIVE yard penalty... Then:
Line up for FG again, but this time it's 4th and ONE. Hand to God, saw it on
the screen. Even zapped back -- twice -- to make sure.
I didn't finish college, but 4th down and FIVE minus FIVE yard penalty *should*
make the second attempt play 4th and 0, AKA 1st and ten??

Shouldn't that be a first down by penalty?
Or, if it was a "fat" 5 yards to go, wouldn't it then be 4th and inches? Giving
them a shot at to sneak for the first?
I'm missing something obvious, right? Be gentle with me.
