By rule, once the ball hits the ground on a kick off and it is recovered by the receiving team, at least one second comes off the clock. Essentially the receiving team must fall on the ball while it is on the ground or be on a knee when recovering/catching it to keep the run off down to one second.

And how many times have you seen a squib kick bounce off some guy and roll around.  Brain fart of major proportions.
