UConn James Posted October 16, 2004 Share Posted October 16, 2004 Watching the the UM-Illinois game today was the first time I've seen their system in action. Big(11)Ten Replay Rules Only the Technical Adviser (kind of like an ref, but not connected with the field crew) in the booth can request a replay, and they review the play with two other technicians. Coaches cannot call for a replay tho, which I think would have to be amended. The coaches both took time-outs after questionable plays so that person would have extra time to review. Don't like that, but the organizational system is what I do like. I think it'd probably reduce the time spent on NFL replays for the ref to put his already-biased two cents in. IMO, it would be good to take the decision out of the hands of the people who may have made a bad call and don't want to admit it. And we've all seen that happen. Thoughts?
