Replay Likely To Go Standard

[Guest Tigrinum Major]

Replay getting better

DALLAS -- Upon further review, college football is likely to get one set of rules for instant replay instead of the conference-by-conference formats that led to confusion, frustration and mistakes during the bowl season.

Tweaking how and when to use replay was the most talked about topic Wednesday at the annual meeting of Division I-A football coaches. Officials with the American Football Coaches Association settled it for now by deciding to poll all 119 coaches next month to get a better grasp on what everyone thinks would be best.

"What will come out of this is there will be uniform rules set," AFCA executive director Grant Teaff said. "What'll most likely happen is that they'll put in a rule: Here's the standard. You either accept it or you don't accept it. And I think nationally they'll accept it."

Feel free to opine.
