now you are just hurting my feelings
It happened in a Texas vs. Texas A&M game a little over a year ago

I forget what my search string was, and for some reason my google search history didn't log it.
how the hell did that actually happen?
2nd 00:10 TA - Buhl, Jonte 98 yd fumble recovery (Pegram, Todd kick), , TA 13 - UT 6
3rd 13:33 UT - Tatum, Bobby 10 yd blocked punt return (TEAM kick failed - 1pt safety), , TA 13 - UT 13

The team that scored the TD got a point for the safety, not the opposing team. I don't think the opposing team has ever gotten a safety on a conversion attempt.
the one scenario where it could happen (other than intentionally running backwards) is if team B is running it back for 2 the other way, fumbles the ball in play, team A recovers near their own endzone, makes a move back into the end zone to avoid a tackle and gets tackled for a safety. it's an interesting theoretical situation that has a 1 in a billion chance of ever ocurring
i wonder if that's the only 1 pt safety ever recorded.
