My uneducated guess.
"End of the game" is always more important than earlier in the game. Teams can often overcome a mistake by an official early in the game, but may not have enough time to do so late in the game.
"National TV"? I'll let the college guys opine on that.
Most important may be "impact". Did the wrong throwin spot put one team at a major disadvantage that they couldn't overcome because it was very late in the game?
