They can look at the play much quicker and much more effectively. Then they call down to the ref and tell him what the call is. They do something like this in hockey, if I'm not mistaken. And college, right? It's not like the ref makes every call on the field anyway. I've never understood that.

I was about to say the same thing. Have officials in the booth upstairs make the call on a much bigger hi def tv, and then just radio it down to the man in charge on the field, speeds up the process and IMO it would be more accurate than one guy on the field looking through a tiny TV, take it all to the booth and just relay the message.
