The reason teams do this is they expect the receiving team (defense) to try to block this gunner/receiver thus resulting in a DPI flag. It's very possible the back judge has no idea this is a pass instead of a kick because their focus is downfield. They could flag the gunner/receiver for DPI if they make contact with the deep receiving team member or field the ball with a receiving team member in the area (also KCI). Obviously the R and probably the H would report it was a pass and the flag picked up. The NCAA rule absolve the receiving team of any DPI in this situation

So if the offense/punting team doesn't catch the ball they turn ball over at spot of scrimmage??
