I applaud the Big 10 for trying this out. A trip to the Rose Bowl is too valuable if an error can be corrected through replay.

That said, I wish they'd go to the challenge system. The current system reminds me of the old NFL replay system in the late 80s. If a coach thinks a call stinks, and he thinks it can be overturned, challenge it! I hope this this new system doesn't make the officials timid to make a call.

Also, talking about the number of cameras, etc, the Illinois-Wisconsin game will not be televised on October second. How will that impact replay? It would be too bad if one of those teams misses a bowl game because there wasn't replay to correct a call.
