Have watched a few ACC games including tonight's FSU/UVA game and I think ACC is on the leading edge with this live replay booth with central command talking live with on field referees. Very efficient, clear and timely decisions being made with good camera work. Hope SEC will adopt soon and will be interesting to see given the SEC usually protects the refs ex last week's Oklahoma/Auburn game. Transparency on the calls would be nice.

In addition, not sure what others think but while an all-in Vol fan and long time season ticket holder, I wish we could see more replays on our Jumbotron even if it's a good play by our opponent or controversial call. We only show our scores or calls we think should go our way. It's not going to change the outcome by showing what the refs, TV or central command is already viewing.

Go Vols, beat State!

We definitely need this for SEC play AND the playoffs. Transparency is key. Especially when the SEC is apparently not gonna spend the money to hire and train FULL TIME refs for their BILLION dollar league so they suck from time to time. Makes it even more necessary to have and use the replays as well as letting it be live on the broadcast

The Big XII does it too. I like it a lot but I don't think you will ever hear a live broadcast exchange from the refs in Birmingham and the SEC refs on the field lol.....for reasons.....

I would rather have refs be forced to watch clips of the game feed on Sunday and explain why they did or didn't make calls... like how did you happen to miss those 27 blatant holding penalties on Georgia?
Agree this should happen too! In addition to copycatting the ACC replay booth live feed.

They just need to shorten the time it takes overall. I rember when the XFL broke the internet with how efficient they are with the reviews. Seconds and it's over.

It was one of the best "new" things I've seen in CFB in a while. It just makes it all seem a little bit more understandable. I like it

All that does is make sure the refs can only sway the game the way they want by calling/not calling penalties that are not reviewable. Case in point, the no call on the obvious Florida State pass interference on the Virginia WR toward the end of the game.

All conferences and every sport with replay needs to go to this transparency. Very refreshing.

The pro sports need to do the same.

I have no problem with the time they take as long as they get it right. The call on the bobble in the endzone during the FSU game didn't take too long and was the correct call.

I am in the camp of liking it too. Since SEC refs are the worst in the conference I would like to hear how they think.

You can thank The Rock. It started in his UFL and in my opinion is a great idea. NFL needs to do it too
