No. It is an untimed down, and the only stat that counts is whether or not the 2-point conversion is successful. Want proof? Here's the most recent example I could think of off the top of my head. In Week 2, the Broncos scored a 2 point conversion, Cutler to Royal. Here is the full play by play:

If you go through line by line, you will see that Eddie Royal had 5 catches for 37 yards, plus he had a sixth catch on the successful 2 point conversion. Now here is the box score for the game:

Note that Eddie Royal is credited with 5 catches for 37 yards. He did not get credited with an additional catch. He did not get credited with an additional two yards.

Is it a interception if the defense catches a option pitch?

No its not. In an option play, the pitch must go slightly backwards like a lateral and when this happens its basically a handoff. At that point its not an interception its a fumble by the offense. The announcers may say that they player "intercepted the pitch" but that does not make it an interception.

How does a football team score a two-point touchdown?

If a team attempts a two point conversion after scoring a touchdown and the ball is fumbled and recovered by the defense or if a pass is intercepted by the defense who then run the ball back to the other end zone the defense team will be credited with the two points. This is called a defensive conversion. Note that this rule only applies in college football. In the NFL, the defense can't score on a point-after attempt.


Has there ever been an NFL or college football game where a team only scored 1 point?

Although it is not possible to score only one point in an NFL game in college football it is possible to score only one point. It has never happened, but it would involve a return by the defense on a extra point attempt. If the defense made a return on a blocked kick, fumble, or interception (all dead plays in the NFL on an extra point conversion), fumbled the ball before scoring at the other end, and the offensive conversion team recovered it then went back into the end zone and was tackled, it would a one point safety for the defense.
