NfL Rules v. College rules.

I just saw the replay on ESPn today of Ohio State intercepting & returning a failed 2 pt conversion. If this happens in the NFL will it be a pick 6 or will it only be 2 pts?

2 pts

2 pts

I've honestly never seen that play before. It was pretty cool.

Zero points. The play is dead when the player catches the interception.

Digest of Rules Main

Try

1. After a touchdown, the scoring team is allowed a try during one scrimmage down. The ball may be spotted anywhere between the inbounds lines, two or more yards from the goal line. The successful conversion counts one point by kick; two points for a successful conversion by touchdown; or one point for a safety.
   
2. The defensive team never can score on a try. As soon as defense gets possession or the kick is blocked or a touchdown is not scored, the try is over.
   
3. Any distance penalty for fouls committed by the defense that prevent the try from being attempted can be enforced on the succeeding try or succeeding kickoff. Any foul committed on a successful try will result in a distance penalty being assessed on the ensuing kickoff.
   
4. Only the fumbling player can recover and advance a fumble during a try.

Nice to know though I think it's stupid. I seriously thought it was just two points.
