I understand. I was just checking to see if there was something else I wasn't considering other than the quality of kicker, punt protection issues etc. You will run at least 2 seconds off the clock before the safety So 12 seconds left Free kick time, either kick off or punt. Now the question I have is can u fair catch if they line up and punt the kick? If so can they then ask for a free kick and try a field goal? Or is that only in regular punts only? So let's say u can't, the kick should then take off at least 2 more seconds if they don't fair catch So now there is 10 seconds left. Can you get in field goal range in 10 seconds? I know our kicker this year if he gets off a good one would kick it down to the 20-15 yard line. So if they attempt a return your looking at it being maybe only 8 seconds left instead of 10 or possibly less. In NCAA there is no such thing as a fair catch kick. So Army wouldn't have that option.

If you're taking a safety and intend to kill clock why not tell you ol to hold like hell who cares if you take a penalty you may eat 2 more seconds off the clock?

Or just false start...by rule there is supposed to be a 10 second run off. So that should be a quick 10 secs you can burn.

That's not how that rule works, they won't apply the runoff in that case.
