Actually, for player safety reasons (people get hurt frequently in those pileups), they could just drop the ball into the top of the Price Is Right Plinko board and watch where it falls, the recovering team determined by the slots at the bottom. At each end of the board you can have a "returned for touchdown!!!!" slot that will set off confetti.
