How instant replay will work this year in the Pac-10
According to FanBlogs, the Pac-10 will have the same instant replay system as the Big-10 this season.
Upon further review: instant replay
"Only the replay official can stop play to review a call. All calls are reviewed by a replay official from the press box. If a play is in question, the replay official alerts the officials on the field and play is stopped. The replay official watches angles provided by the television coverage for that game. Calls involving clock and/or game management cannot be reviewed even if noticed by the replay official. Instant replay is used in all conference games. In non-conference games, the visiting team must agree to use the replay or it will not be available. The types of plays that are reviewable include plays that are governed by the sideline, goal line, end zone and end line, passing plays, and other detectable infractions, such as forward progress with respect to first down. "
Hmm, forward progress with respect to first down. Does that mean that the spot can be reviewed? What about games that don't have television coverage? Or do they all have to have some basic replay or TV coverage now?
