Why doesn't the NCAA place a device in the ball that will alert officials the exact time the ball crosses the plane, which is synced with the clock displaying next to the review screen? This might also work for first downs, etc...

Cost is probably the main reason. With how many footballs are used in an average game, making sure the equipment works, etc and the fact that most of the time they get it right, I don't think the benefit outweighs the cost, especially with the benefit of replay.Originally posted by doctorcoug View PostWhy doesn't the NCAA place a device in the ball that will alert officials the exact time the ball crosses the plane, which is synced with the clock displaying next to the review screen?
