Well, nobody can ever claim you didn't call your shot.Nope, that's worth 2 points.
To get one point, you have to get a "defensive conversion safety", which would require the following to happen:
This has never happened in an NFL or NCAA game, but it is in the rule book for both.
- You block an extra point and run it almost all the way back
- You fumble and the kicking team picks the ball up in the field of play
- The kicking team then runs backwards into their own endzone and gets tackled for a safety
