The delay of game

I understand your point and agree with it, but for the record, the kick would have been good from 59.

This - that FG had a lot of extra room as it crossed the cross bar.

false premise. That kick wouldn't have happened. It's a completely new set of random events. Punting from 5 yards closer resets everything. Punt likely falls somewhere different. Play call is different. Iowa's coverage might be different. Even if he does end up that same place, maybe he approaches the ball differently knowing he has to go 59 instead of 54.

Completely new set of random events.

Bottom line KFz didn't control everything he could.

Well, this is one of those totally useless discussions because nobody can know what would have happened. I think if the ball had been five yards farther out, Campbell would still have tried the FG. The kid made a 65-yarder in scrimmage last week and had nailed a 46-yarder in this game with a lot of room to spare.
