An onside kick by Oregon after its first late touchdown was touched by a Ducks player before it traveled the required 10 yards, and the Pac-10 ruled that the ball should have been awarded to Oklahoma. The league also said that video revealed that an Oklahoma player actually recovered the ball.

I'm still not convinced that the rule for touching the ball in the first 10 yds is awarding the ball to the receiving team regardless of who recovers it. Maybe it is in college rules, but I think it's a rekick after a penalty in the pros.

If Oklahoma did in fact recover the fumble before the whistle blew, it's a moot point. Oklahoma ball, no question.

Here are the only rules I could find for NCAA football. They're dated 2002 but I'm sure the rules haven't changed concerning free kicks.

The pertinent section is found on page 79. I would copy but it's a pdf. In summary, receiving teams ball at spot of the foul.
