Best Answer

Yes. Assuming that no other points are scored, a team can score 5 points through the following (in any order):

* Getting a field goal (3pts)

* Receiving a safety (2pts)

A field goal is achieved when, in the course of normal play, the coach/manager decides that the team is no longer able/likely to achieve a touchdown but is close enough to the goal line (and the uprights) to kick the ball through to earn three points.

A safety is earned for team A, in the course of normal play, when team A tackles a member of team B who is carrying the ball behind their own goal line.

How is 4 man 30 point league bowling calculated?

There is no specific definition of a 4 man 30 point league system. Points can be earned for a team beating its opponent for each game and series (scratch score, handicap score or both). In some leagues, points can also be earned for a bowler on a team beating their opponent for each game and series (scratch score, handicap score or both). So one league could define their league as earning 30 points by: A team will earn 10 points for winning the handicap game and 10 points for winning the handicap series. Another league could define their rules as: A team will earn 5 points for winning the handicap game and 5 points for winning the handicap series. A team will earn 5 points for winning the scratch game and 5 points for winning the scratch series series. Another league could define their rules as: A team will earn 2 points for winning the handicap game and 10 points for winning the handicap series. A bowler will earn 2 points for winning the handicap game.

Could an NFL team win a game one to nothing?

If a game is forfeited, the non-forfeiting team officially wins 1-0 in high school and college football. The exception is if the offended team is already ahead at the time of the forfeit, in which case the score stands as-is. Though it has never happened, it is possible for a team to score just one point in a college football game (if the offensive team somehow gets tackled in their own endzone for a safety on the PAT, the defensive team would be awarded one point), but the other team has to score at least one touchdown for this to be possible.

In each set, you play to 25, win by two. If you get to 29-29, the next point decides who wins that set. Winning 2/3 or 3/5 sets wins the match depending on what league you're playing in.
