* Yes, I know the majority of NCAA games don’t have monitors. But those games don’t get the visibility that drives rules changes, and they typically aren’t wagered on, either!

Id wager it would be to prevent stupid crap from happening that would lead to someone's vacation.
I've had to give some slight rants to partners here lately about not getting off the floor after games. We narrowly avoided a situation last week that I wouldn't if had to head about if they would of left the game ball alone after the game was over.
