If the Gophers are not flagged for roughing the passer, Northwestern probably kicks a field goal, making the score 17-13. Can we assume that the Gophers run back the ensuing kickoff for a touchdown? On the other hand, since the Northwestern touchdown takes place several plays and several minutes later, does it matter that the following kickoff occurs at a different place in time? If the latter is true, and the Gophers likely are somewhere in their own end of the field following an ordinary post-field goal runback, it would seem that the roughing call actually helped the Gophers boost their lead from 17-13 to 24-17!

If you subscribe to chaos theory then we only won because 2 hours prior a butterfly in Africa flew past an elephant taking a dump.
