Anybody ever hear of that rule at the end of the Easley Daniel game?

Strange!?!?!??? Easley punts out of its own endzone with 5 seconds left up 19-17. Daniel fair catches it. Daniel then lines up for free kick field goal for the win with 1 second. He misses.
Never heard of that rule.

You get a free kick from a fair catch. At any time. Free kick means you can tee it up like a kick off. Just never comes up in the rules very often

How about this, it's 1st and 10 with the ball downed on the 35 with 5 seconds left in the game 4th quarter. There isn't enough time left to run a play, so we decide to try a 45 yd field goal to win or tie the game. If we miss the field goal attempt, do we get 3 more tries at it bc it was 1st and 10 on our first attempt at the field goal?

a bad snap.
Kicking the fg is a change of possession either way

I felt like there was some kind of screwed up rule that would take away the other 3 downs, Thanks.

Either this link or my memory is bad,

Because Doug Flutie made a successful drop kick after his team had a fair catch. Seems like it may have been his last or one of his last games.

Flutie was a different situation. He just used a drop kick for an XP which no one does anymore.
