I'm not saying the offense can snap the ball before the game clock is started after a first down...you implied that after a first down, the referee and umpire will wait for the defense to get set...

The umpire stands over the ball only when the substitution rule is triggered by the referee, or when chains are being set after a first down...he does not wait on players to line up...on a first...
Also, the offense can't run a play until the defense is set. Just thought I'd throw out a NCAA rule which is also a rule at the HS level in Texas by the UIL.
That's not correct...the only time...
