Googled it and if it's what I think it is I dispute its relative rarity to a dropkick.   [sm_devil]

but the dropkick WAS used in ncaa football a long time ago.

the defensive 1 pt safety conversion has never occurred (according to the wiki link)

I would have guessed the dropkick as well.  Never heard of the 1 pt safety.

Not to go all dictionary.com or anything, but wouldn't "rare" imply that it's happened at least once?

First rule of Trivia Club:

1. Guess the significance of a number. Subject matter can be anything, but should be based on common knowledge. Nothing too esoteric.

Seriously, there's a rule written to address a situation that's not occurred in close to 100 years - the entirety of the game's history?

it probably happened, nobody knew what to do, so they wrote a rule in case it happened again.   but it hasn't.

I'd say the rarest play is the QB giving the center a little tickle raising the upright.

Create a DT as tall as the game allows to help in blocking the extra point. ;)

He doesn't need to do that. He can just play offense and run the ball backward into his own endzone on a conversion try.

If his kicker isn't fast enough, he may have to just incur 11 false start penalties.  ;D

This is the one I was thinking of, it took me 2 days to find it, it's not exactly how aske described but strange none the less.

Nice find.  I guess that proves it is a rare (http://www.golfhos.com/topic-6527.msg83353#msg83353) play.  ;D

That was a 1-pt safety scored by the kicking team. Aske was talking about one scored by the team on kick defense. In the game that was cited, Texas (kicking team) was awarded the same 1 point that it would have received after a successful PAT after scoring the TD.

No. 6 Texas scored a rare 1-point safety early in the third quarter of Friday’s game against rival Texas A&M

Ah.  Didn't read it closely enough.  I thought it was the other endzone.

This will happen on January 6, 2302, in the National Championship game between LSU and the University of Phoenix.

I won't tell you which side scores the single digit tho.

Write it down.
