You can argue other things because the point is, which you still don't seem to understand, that things WOULD HAVE been different.  There are TONS of scenarios that could have happened if it were a 29-27 game vs a 30-27 game.  As far as being given a "proper chance" to win.  They had the ball inside our 10 with well over a minute left and first down.  That's a chance to win.  They also had the ball first in overtime, that's a chance to win.  They blew it in both of those situations.

The "what-ifs" are not saying they would definitely help SU, but simply saying you can't reverse the outcome of the game because of all of the "what-ifs."  And, like I've stated before, if everything happens exactly the same on that last drive, which is what you're suggesting, SU DEFINTELY AND INARGUABLY uses their timeouts to make sure there's time left when Toledo kicks their FG.  Then, who knows what happens, but SU has a chance to win there.

So, I don't believe it cost them the "proper chance" to win the game.  It's a crappy situation, sure, but there were calls that cost SU points as well that are inarguable.
