1 point safety

[Packfootball]

A 1-point safety in college football is a rare scoring play that occurs during an extra point or two-point conversion attempt. It's awarded to the offense when the defense commits a safety-like action, such as being tackled in their own end zone after recovering a fumble or interception on the try. Historically, this has happened twice in major college football: in the 2004 Texas vs. Texas A&M game and the 2013 Fiesta Bowl between Oregon and Kansas State.
How it happens

• The defense retreats:
  Instead of running the ball out or trying to score, a defensive player runs back with the ball.

• Fumble or lateral into the end zone:
  The defensive player fumbles or laterals the ball backward, and it goes into the defense's own end zone.

• Tackled in the end zone:
  The ball is then downed in the end zone by the defense, resulting in a one-point safety for the offense.

• After a blocked PAT or failed two-point try:
  The defense recovers the ball.

This is great stuff.

Sidenote- is the CFL getting rid of the rouge? I know that they are planning on changing a bunch or rules.

This reminds me of a couple things I've watched lately.
1. there was a TX high school game that ended 61-59 on a two point conversion returned all the way

2. If you like weird scoring occurrences and rules Jon Bois invented scorigami for the NFL a little over a decade ago and just put out a four part documentary (secret base is the youtube channel) on the NFL scoring possibilities and some of the weirdest combinations that have happened.

He also made a website to track NCAA scorigami

They're getting rid of the rouge on missed field goals and all kicks through the end zone. Singles will still be awarded on punts and kickoffs fielded in the end zone and not run out. They're also taking 10 yards out of the field plus shortening the end zones from 20 yards to 15 yards. They're moving the goal posts from the goal line and putting them on the end lines. They're getting rid of the 20 second play clock that starts on the ready for play and switching to a US style play clock that automatically starts at the end of each play but it will be 35 seconds instead of 40. And the Canadian fans are PISSED! There's so much anti rule change anger that the CFL has cancelled the traditional Meet the Commissioner fan Q&A at the Grey Cup this week.
