Who gets the ball after a blocked extra point and the defense runs it back and gets 2 points?

offense


When defense blocks the extra point and returns for touchdown for two pointswhat is that called?

It doesn't matter that it is a blocked extra point or an interception or a fumble recovery, if either team scores by possessing the ball in their end zone, it is a 'two-point conversion.'


How many points are scored if the defensive team blocks the extra point and returns it for a touchdown?

In High School, the minute a try is kicked, it is dead, regardless if the kick succeeds, misses, or is blocked behind the line. If there is a fumble on a two point conversion and the defense takes possession, the ball is dead and the try has failed. In the NCAA/NFL, if a PAT is blocked behind the line and possessed, or a two point conversion is turned over (interception or fumbled) and returned into the end zone it adds two points to the defense's score.


Can the defense run the ball back on a blocked field goal?

No


Can a blocked extra point attempt be advanced by the defense?

Yes. A missed field goal that hits the ground results in no points and the opposing team taking possession at the spot of the kick (not the original line of scrimmage). If the opposing team catches the ball and returns it, the recovering team would instead get the ball at the point where the return ends. It is possible to return the missed FG for a touchdown.


Has there ever been an NFL or college football game where a team only scored 1 point?

Although it is not possible to score only one point in an NFL game in college football it is possible to score only one point. It has never happened, but it would involve a return by the defense on a extra point attempt. If the defense made a return on a blocked kick, fumble, or interception (all dead plays in the NFL on an extra point conversion), fumbled the ball before scoring at the other end, and the offensive conversion team recovered it then went back into the end zone and was tackled, it would a one point safety for the defense.


Can a fumbled snap on an extra point conversion be run back by the defense for a touchdown?

In NFL ball is dead. In NCAA live ball: On a one-point try attempt, Team A's kick is blocked. The ball is advanced by runner B1 across Team A's goal line. RULING: Award Team B two points (Rule 8-3-1).


In the NFL can you score on a blocked field goal?

Both the offense and defense can score on a blocked field goal. The defense can recover a blocked field goal and advance it regardless of where they recover it. The offense can recover a blocked field goal and advance it as long as the ball has not passed the original line of scrimmage.


If you block an extra point in the NFL and return it will you get any points?

You do not get extra points for blocking an extra point attempt. Points in football can only be scored by action in the end zone. First, the above answer is incorrect, as points scored by kicking the ball through the uprights do not involve "action in the end zone." Second, in college football you ARE awarded two points if the defense blocks an extra point and returns it all the way across the opposing goal line in one play. But in high school or the NFL, blocked PATs are immediately ruled dead.


Can a blocked field goal try be returned?

== Returning a Blocked Point After an Attempt = yes you can and same goes for a 2-point conversion COPIED FROM THE COLLEGE RULE BOOK if you return a blocked point all the way back to the other endzone you are awarded 2 points


How can the defense score a two point conversion?

Offense is going for a 2 point conversion and fumbles the ball, defense picks it up and runs the ball to the other end zone. Defense scores 2 pts on a conversionl. HAPPENED YESTERDAY 11/29/2008


In college what happens when a pat is blocked?

The team blocking the pat is allowed to advance the ball and take possession, there is no kick off and the team that blocked the pat, took possession and advanced the ball start a fresh set of downs. If the ball is blocked and travels into the end-zone and the team which blocked the pat is tackled, the kicking team receives one (1) point.
