Gary is a professional photographer in Ames who has done ISU as well as area high school sports for years. I was looking at his site just now and thought I would put this link here for some past ISU greats. All of these can be purchased.
In that situation, the offical on the left should be looking at the pylon. The trailing official should be watching the sideline. Often times, you'll see the guy on the left turn to the trail official before signaling touchdown.
However, the trail official's view of the sideline is blocked by the FSU player's helmet.
Here, in particular, is Seneca at the goal line against FSU.
I know this was 6 years ago, but that picture just reignited all sorts of anger and frustration. I remember watching that game with my roommates and wanting to crawl into a hole after the final play. I think we sat there in silence for most of an hour. Even our Husker buddy felt bad for us.
Looking at the photo still pisses me off to this day!! That said, I used to work with Jamaul Montgomery who was a senior WR in 2002 and he said that he thought that the team wouldn't have responded as well the rest of the season if they would have won. He said that they played with a chip on their shoulder from that point forth.
1. Seneca was in against Florida State
2. Alabama field goal was good
3. Kansas 3 pointer on a 2 shot foul and Stinson not knocking the ball out of bounds.
4. Double foul. Do I need to tell you what that one was?
Because none of the camera angles CLEARLY showed that he was in. It looked like he may have been in, but there wasn't a 100% definite angle of it. Not enough to reverse the call.

Very doubtful that replay would have overturned it.
On the contrary. I had seats about 7 rows up from that pie line and I could tell you 100% that it was a touchdown. My roommates and I watched Sportscenter for 3 hours straight and every time they showed the replay there was no doubt that Seneca made it (even the anchors on Sportscenter mentioned that had there been instant replay the game would likely have gone into overtime (PAT withstanding)).
