Situation 1. Starting the clock is correct, however, if in the discretion of the referee that the false starts are deliberate to eat up the clock, he may stop the clock using the "unfair clock tactics" rule. Which states: the referee shall order the game clock or play clock started or stopped whenever either team conserves or consumes playing time by tactics abviously unfair. This includes starting the game clock on the snap if the foul is by the team ahead in the score.
