I believe it always goes to the 20 if the try is inside of that yard line.

If the ball is snapped inside the 20 B will next snap at the 20. If it's snapped outside the 20 the ball will be placed at the previous spot. Both assume the miss was not touched by B beyond the neutral zone.

Only if snapped inside the 20. Miss snapped at the 27 will next be snapped at the 27.
High school rule difference...ball snapped at the 35 and is short so it rolls dead or downed at the 3. Ball next snapped by B at the 3! A FG is essentially a punt that can score. Most missed FGs go into the end zone so they are touchbacks and next snapped at the 20.

6 yards and a first down in their territory.
I was thinking about something kind of related today: You could make a pretty good (and long) highlight reel of all the times NDSU has had TDs called back in the last five years.

Due to how wide college football keeps its hash marks compared to the NFL, those short FGs are tougher when kicking from the hashes. If you stand by where the kick takes place and look at the angle of where the uprights are, it’s like trying a rugby kick. That’s why in college, some teams try to get the ball backed up five yards with a delay of game.
As far as the call of going for the FG or going for a first down, I was hoping they went for it which got me some dirty, “are you dumb” looks from those around me at the game. Either way was fine, but the soft, weak defense NDSU went into afterwards was what disappointed me, not the miss or not getting the first down.
Also, if you got a chance to go on the field afterwards, you got to feel how slick and soft the surface was. Maybe the new tarp they use needs to be off longer to dry the top soil a bit.
Lastly, you’re absolutely correct, Winning Championships never gets old!

I meant NDSU should have run the ball to the left on third down to center the ball between the hashes for the FG attempt. Pretty standard practice when positioning for a FG attempt at close range. I think it was a poor play call not to in that situation.
