Apologies if this was discussed and I can't find it.

As I recall, it was toward the end of the fourth quarter when UGA had two different 15 yard penalties called on the same offensive play (one was a late hit by one of the OL), can't recall what the other one was but it was another 15 yarder. Next thing I saw was UGA was in a First and 40. Never seen yardage marked off for both penalties of the same play. Has this always been the case ? I've seen a five yarder and 15 yarder called on the same play and the other team almost always choses the 15 yar penalty, but 20 yards was NOT walked off. Is this only for 15 yard penalties or some variation of "unsportsmanlike conduct" ?
